Vista Games Font Problem

Joebug posted on Sunday, July 15, 2007 5:00 AM

I have been using Vista for a couple of months.
Recently I encountered a problem with Vista games.  The games (Mahjong
Titans; Minesweeper etc) have lost their fonts.  Titles  and tips have now
very large fonts which do not fit in game screens/pop up tips.
I would appreciate if I can get help to get the original fonts back.
I am using the latest Nvidia drivers for my system (GeForce 7800GTX SLI)

Thanks

Dorth,

I have solved the problem.  Do you have Nvidia nTune installed.  If yes,
open the Control panel. Go to "Adjust Image Settings With Preview".  Choose
the problem the setting was on  "Use my preference emphasising QUALITY".

Regards

Joe

Great! Finally a solution! Thanks.

But how come I couldn't find this on any troubleshooter wizard or FAQ? I
mean, this is exactly the kind of stuff that one would expect to be there,
and based on how old the previous messages in the chain are, there's been
plenty of time to update help files with this info.
