Hi there.

I have just bought a laptop with a 1600x1200 screen .

With it everything shows up far too small on it. But when i put the screen resolution down to 1200 x1000 everything shows up very blurry on it.

I have a ATI 9600 GC and have played about with some settings but to no avail.

Is it at all possible to get a 1200x1000 screen without it being blurry?

Thanks..
 
Is 1600x1200 your native resolution?LCD screens realy only look good at native resolution.You could try to change the size of your fonts and icons to make them larger.Right click a blank spot on your desktop click on properties click on appearence if you are on xp home you can change your font size on that screen.Click advanced click on the drop down list pick icon change the number to a larger number to make your icons bigger.
