    i just reinstall everything including my dell i6000. my default screen resolution is WSGA+. the size of the font is too small on the default screen resolution. so i decided to increase decrease the resolution to 1280X768... then the image becomes to blur. the question is is there a way to sharpen that blurness on the display?

    No, that's what happens when you run in a non-native resolution. I wish more people would come here first before buying their machines...sigh.

    I can't imagine doing this myself but you should be able to set it to any resolution you get by dividing both numbers by 2,3,4,5... after 2 I don't know. I can't see an elephant at 100' without my glasses, might be time for a new eye doctor!
