Aero + Classic font?
Since I'm setting up Win7 right now, I also have another issue that annoys me:
I love the classic XP font!
In Win7, if I disable all visual effects (System Properties -> Performance -> Adjust for best performance), the font is perfect! However, Aero obviously gets disabled as well. If I switch Aero back on (via Start -> type "aero" -> "find and fix..."), many of the windows remain with the classic font, but others (like the control panel) go back to that "smooth" font.
Is there a way to have the classic font everywhere (with now edge "enhancements")?
I'd really appreciate any help on this - I'm actually considering keeping Aero disabled so I can have my good ol' fonts.
Edit: I just found the "Window Color and Appearance" window, which was hidden in the Control Panel under Personalization -> Window Color (why there???) -> Advanced appearance settings.
I could set some fonts there back to Tahoma (which is the classic Windows font), but that didn't really change that much:
There is definitely a conflict between the different Windows tool that deal with changing the appearance...I'll experiment more, but I'd love to get some input from you guys!
