I have found using the highest resolution on the desktop gives a crisper picture as the monitor is designed to run at that res, just match FS to that, try the higher setting you will see a difference :)

Hi Tony, if I set my resolutions higher for my monitor the icons and writing become very much smaller and difficult to read. :((
