    Windows 7 pro fuzzy fonts in all applications


    Hi everyone strange problem. I turned on my computer Fujitsu box Windows 7 Pro 4GB

    Now all the text is fuzzy and I can not sharpen it up. Looks like edges are a rough or smudged

    So far I have tried font smooth edges, DPI setting and that text tune thing, tried the resolution and have updated the Intel HD drivers

    I have not installed anything in months and nothing has changed, any ideas, please?

    I have tried adjusting the monitor and replaced the VGA lead

    Anything I open the text is fuzzy

    Hi John Motice,

    Try this:

    1. Click the start button (Microsoft Logo bottom left of screen)
    2. Type into the search box: Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows
    4. Uncheck Smooth edges of screen fonts
    5. Restart computer
    6. If fonts still fuzzy
    7. 1-2 again, check Smooth edges of screen fonts
    8. restart computer

    Googling your issue seems to be a plethora of suggested fixes, none appear to fix the problem. I haven't suggested any of them except the aforementioned.

    If you can't figure it out, review Shawn Brink's tutorial, maybe a Repair Install would work.

    Perhaps your graphics card is failing.

    Do you have another graphics card or does your motherboard have onboard graphics?
