Hi Folks,
I'm a newbie so bear with me.
I just bought a Sony PRS 505 on eBay, it should arrive today. I'm looking forward to this as my eyesight is not what it used to be, and I love to read.
In anticipation I downloaded the Calibre programme. It all seems to work but the text, you know, the writing on the dropdown menu's etc is all broken up and faint. It makes it near impossible to operate I have the same problem with Google Earth, but nothing else.
I've searched the web for answers but to no avail.
I've tried changing the display settings on my monitor but that doesn't help.
I keep thinking it must be the graphics card, but that's big enough for the kids games.
Any tips would be appreciated
Kind Regards
Dave in Germany
