Is this a Nvidia issue or something else?

After must whinning and pouting that my old CRT monitor was causing eye fatigue, my dear partner gave me his 21 inch LCD monitor.  (Bought himself a iMac, so now I have that on my conscience).

Anyway, this monitor has this enormous resolution of 1600 X 1200, which I would have sworn, I could never use without going blind.  But lo and behold, it's not that bad.  Better than the fuzzyness of trying to run using a lower than native resolution anyway.

Anyway, blah blah.  Get to the point Jane you blabbering fool.  If I try to get the game to run using this max resolution, I get strange a strange fuzzyness in the graphics, noticable on things like bedspreads, carpets, wallpaper and clothes.  It's a lot like when you are trying to run with details set to low.  Except the weird thing is that the fuzzyness is not constant.  If i use the design tool, I'll get a crisp image, but after I've done something else, the bedspread looks fuzzy again.  If I drop the game resolution, the problem is less noticable, but still there.  Except of course I am playing in this tiny window in the middle of a huge desktop.

Is this because of my vid card?  I have a GeForce 6600GT.  All my settings are set to high.

dizzy:
Are you using the nVidia settings to set the antialiasing or are you setting that in the game? I use the nVidia-settings control panel, myself.

angelyne:
right now the setting is at application controlled.  What would you suggest?

Like this?

This drove me insane last September and I did what was suggested in this thread:

and it fixed it.

I don't use this "AA" business. As far as I'm concerned, AA is for dealing with planes. I don't WANT my edges to be blurry! Edges should be SHARP and EDGELIKE. That is what makes them EDGES. I want edges so sharp they puncture BlueSoup's fat, super-deformed bobble head on contact.
