Hello Tojo, would you post a screenshot to make it easier for us to understand the problem? I'm probably unable to help you here, but for anyone to help you, they'll need to take a look at it.

Download greenshot, which is free and you shall be able to take screenshots and even choose the output format of the shots etc, it's the program I use in my AAR.

Maybe you changed you video driver, or the text of Windows?
What graphic card do you have?

Did you remove the integrated one? If not try that. I ran PoN with my integrated card and it looked fine. Also, not sure what version of Windows you have buy try changing the font settings. Try checking and unchecking ClearType text.

This is for Windows 8:
Right click on your desktop and choose Personalize. Click 'Display' in far lower left corner. There should be an option to 'Adjust ClearType Text'.

No that hasn't solved it, I really don't understand why this is happening since it doesn't occur in any other AGEOD game! :grr:

I tried turning the smaller font option on and off, I did the cleartype text, calibrated it, then turned it off and it doesn't work either way.

I'm willing to try anything to fix this, and thank you very much for responding bbmike :wavey:

That's definitively an hardware issue, you'll want to contact support@slitherine.co.uk about that.

I'm only guessing here but something similar has happened to me before. I was running low on video memory at oner timer and it caused those blurry texts. As an experiment, you might try starting the game and starting a new small scenerio which takes less memory since the integrated card uses your ram as video memory, when the game goes awhile it is using more and more ram for the game so your video might just not have enough. If that solves it then buying a new dedicated video card would solve the issue.

Good Luck!!

may be you should change your graphic card or your video drive.
