I have just upgraded to Windows 7, and transferred a group of photos I used in XP as screen savers onto the new system
I have the same screen as before, but the quality of these photos as screensavers is greatly inferior to how they appeared under XP
I know the images themselves are sharp, but in Windows 7 they are quite "out of focus"
Do I need to tweak anything in Windows 7?
:eek:

My screensaver is set to just show pictures on my PC. Thus some are sharp and some, because of the size, are not so sharp. I don't see any way to change the screensaver display size.
