    Hi ,

    I used my laptop with a projector for the first time over the last few days for a Powerpoint slideshow.

    Ever since it has left my fonts blurred and its making text very hard to read. It almost looks as if everything has expanded slightly.

    I have tried playing around with appearance settings etc.. but to no avail.

    Any suggestions anyone please?

    The resolution may have changed. Does everything appear bigger than it was?

    Put your screen on a diet. :D

    Do you know your monitors native resolution? Change it to that if you do. If not try changing it to 1280x720.

    Is it back to the way it was, if not you are probably not at the native resolution. What is the most you can highest you can put the resolution at?

    It now looks thinner and smaller, :D highest res I can get is 1280x800.

    Still its easier to read.. not quite the original but much better..

    Then chances are 1280x800 is your native resolution. Change it to that.
