I wish I would have known about this a lot earlier. It did make reading on LCD screen a lot easier on the eyes.

I thought all of you people know about it. It was an option when you booted up for the first time.

Its not an option after a fresh XP pro install. Mabe it is for home? Or did you get a dell or some other preconfigured pc?

Why not up the screen refresh rate :idea2:

I have no clue. I made this system myself and with both home and pro it gave me the option.

For some reason, on my IBM Thinkpad at work, I don't get that option, either. I think it has something to do with the customized ATI drivers that IBM provides. Might be true of other makers, too...
