WTF!!! youre using WHAT resoloution?! that picture is only 800x600, its tiny man, UP YOUR RESOLOUTION, 640x480 is a waste of time. stars plays crap at that res, everything is crap at that res... and if your computer CANT do higher than that.... BIN IT, or get another graphics card ( �2 ) and that one CAN!

if its cause u cant READ anything smaller than at 640x480, try Glasses or better yet, increase the text size in explorer to the biggest possible ( here ill help you out! - click View -> Text Size -> Largest, that will help you ALOT

Up your resolution too. Very Happy

I do use 800 most of the time and switch to 1024 often when I am running Stars! as it gives me a larger view of the map. My graphics card is just fine thanks. It even does audio/video IO's as well as RF television via cable IO's via RG52 cable. Although when they go solely digital in a couple years and ditch all the analog signals, I will have to upgrade graphics card for sure, as my RF port will be useless except for old vcr's and other older analog sources.
I can read perfectly on my monitor as I am near sighted, thank you. So I will save my glasses for driving, mostly. Thanks for the help with IE. Sure coulda' used your help when I was repairing Commodores, Amigas and Atari ST's back in the 80's. Smile

The problem you are missing here is that a window such as HWForum uses also has borders and menus, headings, etc. So an 800x600 screen will not hold an 800x600 picture in addition to these borders, etc. without running out of room. Therefore scrolling is required, as the oversized picture has managed to change the format of the entire thread, not just the message with the picture in it. Do you understand? Smile
