neil9000 Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 OK, let me chime in here as well. I just checked on my system. I have it set to 100% normally. I changed by right clicking the desktop and changed it to 150%, then restarted to make sure it stuck. I then right clicked bigbox.exe, chose blah blah. This is how massive and shit it looked. As you can see i hit the dpi scaling button, and bigbox looked just like it does at 1080p 100% scaling. So.... Quote

Windows was at 150% bigbox lookedlike it was at 1080p, which is what my tv is, so scaling works for me. Quote

Porl Hendy Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 I also tried this but my letter sizes were wrong and cut off at the top and bottom of the system names. I am using a older version of windows 10 though and i dont have the 'scaling performed by' option Quote

neil9000 Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 OK, all three of these pics were taken when my windows was set at 150% scaling. As you can see no issues at all for me, everything looks perfect. 3 Quote
