Subject: Tip re fuzzy chessboard graphics in Shredder 8/Fritz 8 etc

The chess pieces have been fuzzy (not sharp) on my Shredder 7 and now Shredder 8
chessboard and the variation board for a long time, and I didn't know why. Now
I've discovered the reason by accident. It is caused by a setting in Windows XP
that rounds the edges of screen fonts. If you turn that off, then the
chessboard/variation board pieces are super sharp, like they should be! To get
to that setting on my computer: System Properties, Advanced tab, Settings
button, uncheck the box for Smooth edges of screen fonts, click OK.
