T520 Display Tweaking

Options

‎08-11-2011 10:22 AM

Just got my T520 and I am setting it up.

 

Monitor seems to have great colors but text does not look "sharp", especially on particular sites like Facebook for example.

 

Are there any possible tweaks you can suggest to adjust this?

 

Here is my hardware:

  • Video Card: Intel HD
  • Thinkpad Display 1366x768 (32-bit)(60 Hz)

You could try the Microsoft clear-type tuner.

What browser are you using?  There have been issues lately with Firefox and to some degree internet explorer.  Turning off hardware accelleration will help - if that is the problem you are having.

 

FireFox 4 Fonts: Fuzzy!
