| 550082 | 2007-05-15 19:40:00 | Hello all. I just bought a new XFX Geforce 7900GS Extreme and I am using a DVI to VGA Adapter. The problem is that the text is blurry in certain windows and programs but not all of them. I've installed the latest drivers. I also noticed that one output is sharper than the other. Did I just get a bad card? |

| 550086 | 2007-05-17 05:00:00 | It is an LCD, and it's set to it's native resolution of 1280x1024. | Toby1Kenobi (12271) | ||
| 550087 | 2007-05-17 05:03:00 | Can you try plugging it straight into DVI? | mejobloggs (264) | ||
| 550088 | 2007-05-17 05:07:00 | Or if cleartype is on turn it off. Or vice versa. |

| 550089 | 2007-05-17 05:08:00 | Oh, first though... Check cleartype Right click on desktop > properties > Appearance > Effects > Untick 'Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts' Tell us if that changed anything |

| 550091 | 2007-05-19 02:03:00 | Thanks for the advice so far and the compliment on my card. Turning ClearType on and off didn't help much. Also the text has started to develop a flickering effect as well. Using a DVI to HDMI cable on my projector seems to eliminate all of the problems. I guess it's just time to upgrade to a monitor with DVI. |
