AJLynn Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 It's good that you have a graphics card. Your blur isn't showing up as blurred on my monitor. Do you have an LCD monitor? Is it running at lower than its maximum resolution? Half the people I know who have LCDs run them at a lower-than-optimal res, which makes it blurry, because they want their text large, but the real answer is to run the monitor res high and increase the screen font size.

chow choppe Posted November 6, 2006 Author Share Posted November 6, 2006 i don't have an LCD monitor its a simple 17 " LG SXGA monitor i think the problem is with my settings of monitor only because it works fine at office with same CPU unit but different monitor. i have my screen resolution set at 1024 x 768 Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Homeless Guy Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 what about your smooth screen fonts settings? ...those settings can sometimes cause blurry text that is not consistent across the monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJLynn Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Is this just along the edges? Or consistent across the whole screen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Hess Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Quick fix. Try another monitor. If it looks the same, try a different cable. If it looks the same, the video card's RFI filters could be damaged. In which case, if you have a dual output card (DVI-I and HD15) you're in luck. The DVI-I is filterless (the converter handles it). Pick up, or borrow a DVI-I to hd15 connector and try using the DVI-I port. This is assuming your monitor hertz and resolution is set properly.

Wayne Harney Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I had a problem like this when I upgraded a video card. The solution was to up the refresh rate in the display settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookiE Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Change the Htz rating on your monitor under graphics card settings Right click desktop go to properties settings advanced monitor and change that to either the highest it can handle or sometimes i have found monitors work better at a certain rate if its a bit of a lower quality monitor. Also make sure you do this in steps untill it looks right and always click apply not ok, because if it goes out of frequency you get a little screwed unless ya really know what ya doing Didnt read the reply up one from me he saying the same thing lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
