Fuzzy graphics

[Guest]

I just got a new laptop, and IE was working fine, but now the text displays
great but the images and graphics are all fuzzy. Is this a DPI issue? If so,
what do I change it to? The current setting is at large size, 120 DPI. My
resolution is at 1400 x 1050 which looks great for everything except IE
graphics.

Thanks SO MUCH.

Hi,
Is the new laptop a Dell?
This may be the well known Dell / XP / DPI problem.

See:

SpeedStep's reg file is the easy way to go.

More info at:
820286 - PRB Windows XP Does Not Natively Support High-DPI Screens
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=820286 But, the [UseHR= dword:00000001]
value should be [UseHR= dword:00000000]

Hope this helps,
Don

Try changing the DPI to 96.
