I just got my dell today, i was browsing some websites and I noticed that a lot of still images are very blurry. Some show up fine but its like the ones that are resized or down sized are fuzzy/pixelated. My desktop LCD never had this problem but then my Desktop monitor is an XGA and my notebook is UXGA at 1900x1200 is this normal or is there something I can do to fix it. my video card is the built in GeForce FX go5200 64mb.

TIA

set your notebook screen to its native resolution of 1900x1200... if you complain that "its too small", i'll go over to your house and smack you in the back of the head for buying an upgraded screen and not using it

It's running at 1900x1200 and its absolutly gorgeous but there are some pictures that are cropped and down sized that don't come out right at all. like the mushkin banner doesn't look right, the edges come out jagged and kinda blurry.

The same thing happens to my girlfriend's 600m with I think, SXGA+ (1400x1050). I think it has to do with DPI setting (Display Properties -> Settings tab -> Advanced -> General tab) being set to Large Size (120 dpi). Most everything looks really nice, but some pictures on websites look really pixellated.
