Improving font quality in Windows XP
Hi to all my friends. You may not have noticed, but when you look closely at Windows XP's fonts, their quality is very low; we just don't notice because we're used to them. But when you look at Windows 7 and compare the fonts of these two versions of Windows, you see the difference. To fix this in Windows XP, right-click on the desktop and choose Properties. Now go to the Appearance tab and click the Effects button.
Click the second drop-down and choose ClearType, as in the picture below:
Well, now press OK and you'll notice the change in the text. These two pictures were taken before and after choosing this mode.

As you can see, in the second picture the file name has better quality. I hope it was useful. Good luck...
