Hi.
I sometimes have problems with blurry pictures when surfing the internet. It seems like I am running a old VGA setting with 16 colors. When looking at pictures taken with my digital camera everything is ok. I might add that this doesent happen all the time, but started about three weeks ago, and sometimes things are fine to begin with and then I have problems after a while. It is only problems with pictures. Text and other graphics looks ok. I have updated the display drivers, and am now at a total loss on what to do next. I have tried to start IE7 without additions, and even installed Google Chrome, but to no avail. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Win XP Pro SP3.
Fujitsu Siemens E8410, Intel Centrino Core2 Duo 2.5 Ghz. 4G ram. Nvidia GeForce8400M G.

I doubt SP3 has anything to do with it. Make sure you have the correct graphic drivers. I don't think the last drivers available from nVidia support the GeForce 8400M, so make sure you get them from Fujitsu Siemens. What screen resolution are you running?
