Problems with display quality
I use windows 10 with a gforce gts 250 and 2 samsung hd monitors (S24D340).
I have one of the monitors connect with hdmi, and the other with vga.
Suddenly when i was in the middle of writing in word, the graphics on the screen became verry bad.
It looks like all the graphics (text, images and video) has lower resolution and if i see a circle i can see the pixels (its not a smooth circle).
I have tried to reinstall the drivers, i have gone through the monitor calibration and the cleartype with no results.
There was no changes made when this happened. The problem is also on both my user accounts on this computer.

Thank you for you reply, sadly none og steps above solved my problem.
I think that the problem might be related to color (32bit/16bit etc) But the settings says that i am using 32bit.
