If Your Counter Fonts are Jagged
For some unknown reason, some computers have clean crisp fonts (for the counter numbers) and other computers have very jagged looking fonts. So far, I have not been able to track down the source of this problem. I suspect that the problem is the computer is using a generic video driver instead of the driver that was designed for your video card. You might want to find out what video card your computer has and see if you have the driver disk laying around. Also, most video card makers will allow you to download the drivers for free. However, if this does not work, here are a couple suggestions:
You might try changing the screen resolution (changing it either higher or lower)
Click on START
Select CONTROL PANEL
Select DISPLAY
Click on the SETTINGS tab
Adjust the screen resolution
Try changing the "color quality" (which is in the same location as screen resolution)
On Windows XP, there is a feature that allows you to change
Click on START
Right click on MY COMPUTER
Click on PROPERTIES
At the top of the window, click on the ADVANCED tab
Near the top, you will find a section called PERFORMANCE. Click on SETTINGS
Click on the VISUAL EFFECTS tab at the top of the window
Click on ADJUST FOR BEST
APPEARANCE
You may try to increase the "Refresh Rate" on your computer video driver. To change this, do the following:
Open the CONTROL PANEL
Open DISPLAY
Go to the SETTINGS tab
Click on the ADVANCED button
Click on the MONITOR tab
Under the "Screen Refresh Rate" select a higher number.
Press OK
