    Flat screen TV? (HD) Are you using composite cables with it? (Scart adaptor thing?)



    Or are you using a small (fat) non-HD CRT tv.

    Not much you can do, some games have an option to increase font size but most don't.

    Any flat screen you can get your hands on at all will be a massive improvement OP.

    Yeah, the games are at one resolution whilst the old fat TV is at another.
