Tired Eyes? Got XP? Switch to Clear Type

July 27, 2020 by Liz

If you’re like me, you spend too much time staring at a computer screen. By the end of the day, your eyes can let you know they’ve had enough. While I was reading through my feeds I came across this tip from Lifehacker. If you use XP, give it a try. I noticed a difference in a matter of minutes.

How to Switch Your Screen to Clear Type

Before you start: You need XP with a video card and a monitor that support at least 256 colors. It’s recommended that you have 24-bit or 32-bit color support for best results.

Then, go Control Panel>Display>Appearance>Effects.

Click the box that says:

Use the following method to smooth the edges of fonts.

Choose Clear Type.

Click OK. OK.

My eyes are still saying, “Thank you.”
