IE 6 display problem

Anonymous · Post by **Anonymous** » Sat Mar 20, 2004 6:39 pm

i haf recently reinstalled my windows xp pro due to harddisk failure. i haf a new replacement and since installing windows xp, i have been having a very frustrating problem with internet explorer. Colours in IE seem like 8 bit, and pictures/photos and graphics on websites look very pixellated and blur. I have never had this problem before with the same windows xp CD. Games and pictures/photos outside IE are perfectly fine. THe problem is only isolated in IE. I have fully updated my display drivers and windows xp. Pls pls help, coz this problem is so so annoying!!
thnks in advance!

Hmm, this may not sound like an actual solution, but it's a way around it. Try using a different browser such as mozilla. You'll actually fall in love with it once you get used to the fact of using a different browser and discover the new features such as tabbed browsing, popup blocker etc.

Does your ISP give you the option to have images sent to you at a lower quality so things will download faster? I think AOL has that. Maybe that is a setting in the software (if any) that the ISP gave you and you forgot to disable it on reinstall?

Must be an isp thing then, contact them about it to see if there's anything like tak was saying.
