Re: Blurry Text
Another question:
Does each different size (or type) of LCD have its own native resolution?
Reason is this. My other computer that shares the same monitor (key board &
mouse) has a different Graphics card and at the highest resolution, can only
get to 1600X1024. I can't get 1600x1050. What are my options then.

Maybe that is what the powertoy, below, is for. I will check that out too.

Thanks
