I'm not sure this is a hardware issue, but it might have to be. I haven't always had this issue at work. On certain websites, text is almost totally unreadable because itmsedge_XOW9QZlzgV.thumb.png.63d3039854dbb91b83ce3cc7059817f7.png is so light. I'm using Edge Insider Beta, and tried Chrome and Firefox and all 3 do it. ANyone know what might be going on?

If all 3 browsers are doing it then I would look at the display drivers, check if there is an update. Barring that, maybe its an Windows Accessibly setting, or clear type I think it's called?

Can you take a look at the CSS and see what font(s) the site is using? I wonder if the site is using a font that's not on your system and they aren't sending the font info to the browser and Windows is doing it's best to find a match.

It's not just that website. It's weird. I went on another computer in the office with the same widescreen display and it looked fine. I'm looking at a few of the pages on my home PC and it's fine too. I installed the nVidia P400 driver and it didn't make any difference.

There a difference between Window versions? Between work and home?

    • Microsoft quietly burying a massive Windows 7 hardware driver feature as Windows 11 kills it

      By TheGhostPhantom · Posted

      If nobody was using it. Then why specifically is it a shame? Windows needs be slimmer. Every feature like this is just more bloat
    • Invincible VS announced, a brutal 3v3 tag fighting game by former Killer Instinct developers

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Invincible VS announced, a brutal 3v3 tag fighting game by former Killer Instinct developers by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Xbox Games Showcase showed off a brand-new fighting game incoming from the award-winning Invincible universe. Simply dubbed Invincible VS, the title will feature three versus three tag fighting with all sorts of heroes and villains from the franchise. Check out the announcement trailer above, which shows off some gameplay near the tail end of it. Published by Skybound Games and developed by Quarter Up, Invincible VS has a big focus on the brutality, much like its source material. There will be iconic arenas straight from the show, as well as a battle damage system to show off the carnage on the fighters themselves. "In Invincible VS, every move, every line of dialogue, every broken limb and bloodied mouth carries real cost and consequence—all building toward the bone-deep satisfaction of victory," said Invincible VS executive producer Mike Willette. "No tag fighting game has ever delivered this level of intensity and violence. This game is a love letter to the fighting game community, created by a team of passionate, experienced fans of the genre." While this is a brand-new studio that's taking on the project, it has been revealed that former members from the 2013 Killer Instinct are involved in the development. "I have said this before, and I’ll say it again: this is the most excited I’ve been about anything involving Invincible," said Invincible co-creator Robert Kirkman. "Invincible VS is crazy fun, fast, ferocious and dripping with the same over-the-top brutality that you’ll see in the comic book pages and on the show. It is a natural evolution of the franchise and it is everything that fans have been demanding for over a decade! This is without a doubt, probably the best superhero fighting game in the universe!" The title will have multiple game modes as well, including a campaign with an original story by the writer of the animated series, an arcade mode for skirmishes, and a training arena. As expected, competitive and casual online multiplayer will be available too. Invincible VS is coming out sometime in 2026 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
    • Microsoft explains how Xbox Ally runs a lightweight bloat-free Windows 11

      And how would a "real" handheld Xbox differed from that? Pray tell. Surely it too would've been a PC with a built in screen and controller, shoehorned into a handheld form factor, and running a flavour of optimised windows? You know Xbox Series X is just a PC running a heavily customised version of Windows 10, right?
    • Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is out this year, landing with a "mind-bending" co-op campaign

      Let me guess, just big hyped cut scenes for what is really just more run around in the same old static urban zone machine gun vs. sniper game play.

      I am not seeing a huge difference there.
