Re: Fonts are faded

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi Paul,
Here is the problem,
When i press the Start and press the upper arrow key from keyboard, any one
of the parameters(Suspend, Run etc) will get highlight in blue, the
highlighted one and some other that recently got highlighted(keep pressing
the upper arrow key), those fonts(the characters of Run, Suspend etc) are not
properly displayed, i mean it is taking some time to display properly, Assume
that at present if we have selected the Run(Run is highlighted in blue), then
the characters in Run is faded also some black lines are coming on that
highlighted area(Like writing something in pencil and erasing it partially)...

"Fonts are faded"? Give us some more information about what you're seeing.
Of course there are not any catalog entries for 'darker fonts'. My
imagination gives several possible problems that might be what you're
seeing: 1) you've set the display controller parameters incorrectly and are
therefore getting odd display effects with your target display, 2) there is
an interrupt or other problem which is preventing the display controller
from maintaining a proper refresh frequency, 3) you're seeing something that
I can't even imagine. Anyway, I think you'll have to send more information
to get any sort of help.
