|
|
Hi can someone help me out here. I'm trying to get a decent display setting on my 2009 mac mini and a non Apple monitor.
I've set it to 1920 X 1080 but the text is just too small to read. The next display setting down is 1600 X 900. At this setting my display is all blurry. I've increased the magnification in Chrome, which is my prefered browser but now all the pictures are not so clear. What can I do?
I'm after a pin sharp image and a nice big legible font as I've seen in imacs in the shops.
Kind regards _________________ Mac mini |

Whats the native resolution of your monitor ?
or the make and model of your monitor ? _________________ Phil

You're only going to have a 'pin sharp' image at the native resolution of the display.
