My fonts are blurry after trying to select a custom DPI then resetting the DPI to 120, BUT ONLY IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS!!
It seems to be older applications that are affected.
For example, here is the difference between the rendering of courier new 30 point in mirc (popular irc client) and MS Word:
[see image here: h.imagehost.org/0995/G2.png (word is at the bottom).]
This is just one example. It seems half the apps have the blurred version of the font and half have the sharp version.
I should state now, that I have deliberately chosen courier new, but even if I choose other fonts, they are still blurred. Also, cleartype is switched on. If I switch to the windows vista basic scheme, the problem disappears; when I switch back to aero, the problem reappears. Cleartype is switched on in both cases. If I switch cleartype off *everything* looks horrible and jagged. The MS Cleartype tuner is of no help.
Thanks in advance for your help.
