Dear All,
My problem is a strange one...
I recently fresh installed XP Pro onto a new computer... applied service ack one and all the latest updates etc...
However I have noticed a strange problem, which is difficult to describe but i will try andyway... please look at teh screen shot below as well...
When a window or box opens up sometimes the text in that box or windows overlaps the box it is meant to be in...
Does anyone have any idea what this is... it happens in everything, and i didnt notice it happening after any installations or software upgrades etc, so I am not sure what is causing it.
I asume because it happens in everyhing tha it is a problem with windows but I am not sure.
for a screen shot please go here:

Many Thanks

It looks like a resolution problem- is that 800x600? It looks a little blocky, try going to a higher resolution and see if it changes.

right click on an empty space on your desktop where no icons are and select properties.
then click the settings tab, then select screen size. try at least 800*600 or 1024*768. looks like your running in 640*480.
also make sure the dpi is set to 96, or defualt.
