502246 2006-11-26 10:12:00 I turned my computer on today and find that my icon titles on my desktop have a dark border on them. Looking through the options didn't fix it. I then relised I had a different font while surfing as well. While I type this the font is different to what it used to be and quite annoying.

Does anyone know how to fix this :badpc:

EDIT: It is probably hard to tell from the screenshots :(

502247 2006-11-26 20:50:00 Am unsure why the system font has changed (maybe someone else using the computer) but to change it back, read this (247.prenhall.com) Myth (110)
502248 2006-11-26 22:39:00 Nah I am the only one using the computer at the moment. The above article didn't fix it (was already at those settings and changing them to others and back to normal didn't fix it).

Might update video drivers and other stuff I guess to see if it fixes it :(

Hurray! :thumbs:

I looked at that so many times and saw Cleartype but I could never save it (the field came up blank all the time). So I simply unticked it and viola it worked :D

Thanks gizmoguy you have saved me from that tacky font.

You can see a slight difference. Other sites it gets worse.
