I'm new to Vista and all ready messed it up :-(

The cleartype factory setting was actually very good, but as the geek I
am I thought that I could improve it by using the Microsoft online
cleartype tuner.... I was wrong - I've tried all the possible 16
settings but none of them worked very weel and now I can't find a way to
reset my cleartype to factory setting - please help!

Thanks
Ole

thanks - Allmost - I don't want to turn it off - just to set it to its
default values - I guess it's the fontsmoothinggamma value that I need
the value of.

Thanks
Ole

Hello Ole

You should still be able to adjust them back using the normal method i
Vista. This tutorial will help show you how to if needed

Found the setting from a fresh installed Vista PC - the factory setting
of the "fontsmoothinggamma" parameter is 0
