I recently had to do a clean install and am in the middle of trying to get
my pc back to how it was. I altered the fonts of the text in windows , and
it made all the text much softer and rounded but i can't remember how to do
it.

Any help much apreciated.

Hi Phil,

I believe you are referring to ClearType.
Go to Display Properties - Appearance Tab - Effects and put a check
next to "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts:"
then select ClearType.
 
thats the one, thanks .
