Closed woderkant closed 7 years ago

woderkant commented 7 years ago

Fedora Media Writer win32 4.1.0 (from https://getfedora.org/fmw/FedoraMediaWriter-win32-4.1.0.exe) shows fuzzy flickering font on Windows 7 x64 and is hardly readable. Both with and without administrator privileges.

Wow, this is a new one. Is there anything special about your install? Did you for example upgrade from a previous Windows editions? What is your graphics hardware and driver, please?

Haven't seen such a behavior before, esp. not on this install. OS is Win7 Pro x64 SP1, nothing special. Graphics adapter is a 2009 Intel GM45 aka GMA 4500M HD. Device Manager shows Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family with driver provider Intel, date 10/04/2012 and version 8.15.10.2869. Internal and external display – same behavior. BTW there is no FedoraMediaWriter.log created, on Windows, right?

I will switch the Windows FMW builds to use the software renderer instead of hardware acceleration and we'll see if it fixes this.
