I had to reinstall Windows last night because of some bad PC problems which I couldn't fix. Anyways, the problem now is that fonts that used to be smooth are now jagged. I've provided a couple images to show the difference of then and now.

Then:

Now:

It's not just on the internet, btw. Does anyone know what the problem is?

Changed the resolution from what you had before the format?

Installed newest drivers for your video card?

I think you got the pics the wrong way round, the first ones the jagged pic

No it's not.

Mini everything is the same as it used to be, drivers + resolution. THat's why I'm wondering what's going on. Maybe it's an option for changing the system font somewhere?

Neigh. Websites are websites. Is it really that bad? It looks like I have the same thing and I barely notice it.

I'm just not used to it, that's all.

Could it be an illusion? Chage your res to the lowest for a minute or two, then change it back to the highest. Looks like a higher res than what you normally have it as, doesn't it? Maybe that's all it is.

Mini, you noob.

Right click on desktop > Properties > Appearance > Effects > Use the following font type, and choose "Clear Type"

Whoa. I think I'm blind but the two images look the same.
