you using the monitors drivers or general windows stock?

maybe there's some nearby device causing interference to the lcd, although i've never heard of anything that would...

then again, i've never used an lcd on my machine and its always been crystal on other boxes...

my moms does the exact same thing it happend when she got a new computer and kept the old lcd monitor now it is fuzzy

I am using the monitor's drivers. I've played around with all of it's settings (contrast, brightness adjustments..etc..)and the text still looks fuzzy. I've even tried using different Mhz.
Still puzzled....

Cheri and everyone else,

There is an excellent guide to tuning your LCD problems at this site (I hope linking is allowed): http://www.pcworld.com/howto/article...58,pg,1,00.asp. I had this problem 2 years ago, and I found ClearType fonts. Basically, the problem you are most likely having is software related - Windows is trying to smooth the fonts you have specifically for a CRT. If you tell Windows to smooth the fonts using ClearType, it will INCREDIBLY improve your LCD's picture.

In order to change to ClearType fonts, go to your Display settings in Control Panel. In XP, select the Appearance tab, press the effects buttons, check the check mark next to "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts:" and select "ClearType" from the drop down box below that. Hit OK, and watch the amazing transformation of the text on your screen. Literally, if all of your text is blurry, this will clear it up 90% of the time. Otherwise, refer to the article above.

I hate that I had to register with this site just to post this, but since I was trying to remember how to fix this problem, and I came upon this thread from Google, I figured I'd share. Have fun with your new LCD's.

whenever i scroll down on the computer its as almost as if water is disturbed. also, the writing on the screen is a tiny bit fuzzy, therefore it comes hard on the eyes
