wierd graphics issue in IE....

[MrUnexpected]

i have this dell 8600 laptop and weve got soem problems....

all images in IE appear as if the display driver is not installed. but it is. newest ati driver. windows update is all up to date. the thing is, everything works great otherwise, pics show up great in pic viewer. in IE it they look VERY over-compresses. hell, if i can get a screenshot, ill show y'all.

then, if you save them, you can view them fine in pic viewer.

have you tried using either opera or firefox and see if its the same? if not give those a try.

ok, i tired to show side by side comparos, and i found why its being dumb.

its resizing the images. all images seem to be stretched out some 20% height and width. wtf?

Is it stretching or shrinking them? Typically if they're large images, it will shrink them to fit on the browser window's defined size, but never expand. You can turn that feature off as well.

If you want to turn it off go to IE:
1. Select "Tools"... then "Internet Options"
2. Click the "Advanced" tab
3. Scroll down to the "Multimedia" section
4. Uncheck "Enable Automatic Image Resizing"

Apply and OK.

its enlarging ALL images, even the little smiley guys on the right of this textbox...
