Display Properties...screen fonts:

External Since: Mar 31, 2006 Posts: 5

Recently I remove a number of programs I was no longer interested in using.
Now, whenever I log off or reboot, I loose my Display Properties setting.
Messing up my desk top apperiance and my font settings for Internet Explorer.
The only way I can fix is to got into my Display Properties, Apperiance,
Effects.... In Effects, I uncheck "Use the following method to smooth edges
of screen font:" then, "OK", & "Apply". Then recheck the it and "Apply".
Usually, that fixes the problem until I next Log Off, Reboot, or Power Down.

Now I don't recall what exactly I removed, though I know
FirefoxGoogleToolbar was one of them and my pick for culprit in this case.

Any help would be appreciated,
Badclown.

You might try reinstalling or updating your vid.drivers, from either mobo,
if on board, card manu, or PC maker if large OEM or latop
You could also try the system file checker, see win help
