its a thing called cleartype. Its supposed to make text more readable on LCD/TFT screens (it does but takes an age to get used to)
in xp right click on desktop and do properties, apperance tab then click the effects button and change "use the following method to smooth screen fonts" combo box from "cleartype" to "standard"
