    Hi all.

    First time in this forum. hope u can help.

    I've just got my brand new thinkpad t61p. It has a native resolution of 1920x1200. I've set the screen res accordingly, and everything appears to be fine. The OS looks great and everything, but it seems that other software won't accept the high res. For example, I'm working with Sketchup, and when its running, all of it's menu's and icons look blurry !! as if it's running in a lower resolution. The same problem appears in other programs, such as the NOD32 main screen - all blurry.

    Has anyone encountered this problem before? Is it just a matter of settings?

    My specs:

    Intel T9300, 2 GB RAM, Quadro 570m, 160 GB HD, WUXGA, Windows Ultimate x64.

    I'd try the latest graphics drivers from either Laptop Video 2 Go or Windows Update. If that doesn't work, check with the problem software to see if it's a known issue.
