This is caused by clear type Effect on Fonts inside XP and Vista this has NOTHING at all to do with Fiesta

1. Right click on the desktop and select Properties.
2. Select the Appearance tab and press the Effects... button.
3. Click the checkbox next to the words "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts" and select "ClearType" from the dropdown field.
4: DISABLE CLEARTYPE

Windows Vista

2. Click "windows color and appearence"
3. Click "Open classic appearance properties for more color options."

Wow, Thnx Nick,

I've been playing with different setttigns to try and fix this on my Desktop. I play on lap top to and the text is fine. Waiting for servers to come back up and see if it works on my Vista Desktop.
