+AD4- Clear Type is set up on the Computer......not the monitor.
+AD4- Native Resolution is not Clear Type.........a LCD monitors native +AD4- resolution is set at the Factory.
+AD4- Clear Type is a small program that adjusts the font and as such it can be +AD4- turned OFF on the system that does not need it...test it.
+AD4- or maybe it needs to be turned on???

+AD4APg- I have two computers that uses the same keyboard, mouse and monitor. I +AD4APg- purchased a new monitor that is a SyncMaster 2053bw. The native +AD4APg- resolution (ClearType) for this monitor is 1680x1050. This is okay for +AD4APg- one computer. The font, letters all words come out real clear. However, +AD4APg- the other computer will not run at this resolution, therefore, the font +AD4APg- on all words, menus and so forth are blurry. The the computer that has +AD4APg- this blurry text is my problem.
+AD4APg-
+AD4APg- Now, I would like to say that the video card is not very good but that is +AD4APg- not the situation. I can actually go at a much higher resolution than +AD4APg- required for the monitor but I can't set it for the exact resolution of +AD4APg- 1680x1050.
+AD4APg-
+AD4APg- Does that mean my only choice is to get another video card?
+AD4APg-
+AD4APg- If this is the case, most video cards will report their highest +AD4APg- resolution so that you can determine if that is the card you want. But +AD4APg- they don't list every exact resolution you can get. So how does one shop +AD4APg- for a video card correct video card?
+AD4APg-
+AD4APg- This brings up a debate about Flat Screens that most people don't talk +AD4APg- much about. If your forced to use one single resolution (because of +AD4APg- ClearType), then aren't you limited? Why did Microsoft come out with +AD4APg- something like ClearType that forces you to use a single resolution +AD4APg- instead of the various resolution we use to be able to use with the old +AD4APg- style monitors? I'm not advocating the old monitors, just confused at +AD4APg- technology that does not give the customer more choices.
+AD4APg-
+AD4APg- Thanks for letting me vent
