    I have a new Z12 with the 1600x900 screen. The default Win 7 installation was set to 125% text in the Appearance and Personalization panel. I find this annoying, so I changed it to 100%.

    However, the login screen still remains at 125%. There's no practical reason that this should bother me, I just can't stand the flickering screen when transitioning from 125% to 100% as I log in. Has anyone found a way to change this setting?

    Thanks!

    Did you try logging in as the Administrator account and setting it to 100% there also?

    I'm wondering, does anyone else have this issue, or is it only me? No way I'm going to reinstall over this, but it'd still be nice to know.
