Windows XP Taskbar Icons Distortion
I just got a new Windows XP 64-bit machine. Super nice and fast, but I had issues with distorted icons that drove me crazy. In the taskbar the icons were appearing distorted and fuzzy, which I found highly annoying.
To fix this I did the following:
– Go to Start->Control Panel
– Double Click “Display”
– Click the Settings tab
– Then click the Advanced tab
– Click the General tab
Under DPI Setting ensure that
“Normal size (96 DPI) is selected.
*Note that below you can select if
you want to restart right away or
not, more than likely you’ll need to
reboot for the changes to appear.
– Click Ok
Upon rebooting you should have beautiful icons again
