Rose,

Strange that it would choke at 110 dpi.  Normally we see the problems occur
when it's over 120 dpi.

Why don't you change the resolution to 1024x768 or 800x600?  You're running
at a *very* high resolution!  That enlarges the fonts and you can stick with
the standard dpi, probably even 96 dpi (I have vision problems and run my
computer at 800x600 with standard 96 dpi fonts, although 120 dpi fonts work
fine)

Thanks for using Legacy.

Thanks Sherry (and Peter) for that info.

Actually, Legacy works fine at either 96 or 120 DPI, in a window or full
screen.  I wanted to set it at 110 DPI, and that's where it choked.  Odd
that it is OK above and below that setting but not between.

I forgot to add to my first note that my resolution is 1400 X 1050. That's
why I wanted to enlarge the DPI.

I can work around it by changing specific font sizes, but was hoping for a
more global approach.
