Windows Zoom or Saving Eyes

XP style scaling is indeed available in W7 but visually it does not work at 150% when comparing it to say 125%, which seems to be the threshold for this feature. Thank you all for trying to help me out. Guess, I'll just have to get used to all of this somehow and not ruin my eyes in the process.

Astounding that Skype is one of those applications. I'm back to hazy 150% as my eyes couldn't take any more of 125% after just an hour of work.

Windows Zoom or Saving Eyes

CSMR, you are right. The reason it is fuzzy is precisely because XP style scaling is not supported at 150%. Super56K, I've just set it to 125% with XP style on. Adjusting ClearType hasn't changed anything. I'll try to get used to it but immediately the eye strain is huge. Although it's not IPS...

Windows Zoom or Saving Eyes

Have you used 15 inch screens too? This is the main point. High resolution on a small screen makes text almost illegible. You would need to squint, which is a sure way to blindness. As ViRGE said above, Windows DPI management is awful, which is probably why everything (not just text) appears...

Windows Zoom or Saving Eyes

Seems like it was a bad idea to go for a FHD panel on a 15" laptop. I'm curious as to how others are coping. Almost all new laptops are coming out with 1920x1080 native resolution.

Windows Zoom or Saving Eyes

Having used my new laptop for a day, my eyes hurt a lot. This is thanks to 1920x1080 on 15". Even the 150% zoom in W7 does not save me as text is not crisp enough, whereas some soft disregards the setting altogether. I have tried other resolution/zoom combinations and none seem to be adequate...

DBAN & Hidden Partitions

Is there a way to avoid wiping a hidden partition that contains laptop recovery software, including Windows? By the way, could DBAN be booted from a USB stick?

RAM-related BSOD?

It has indeed started doing this recently. It's an old (2005) laptop. Will try a restore point. Thanks a bunch!

Didn't record the code back then. All I have now is the following from manifest.txt HeaderText=The system has recovered from a serious error. Stage2URL= Stage2URL=/dw/bluetwo.asp?BCCode=c2&BCP1=00000007&BCP2=00000CD4&BCP3=142B0605&BCP4=E1119370&OSVer=5_1_2600&SP=3_0&Product=256_1 If this...

RAM-related BSOD?

If you are referring to a picture of the actual BSOD, it is impossible. Computer restarts right after. Perhaps, someone could find the cause by analyzing the dump.
