games >> Hearts Name problem

by RVo » Fri, 20 Jul 2007 07:02:01 GMT


I am using Vista Premium. When I play hearts, the players names are hard to
read because the names are written in both black and white in different font
sizes. Any ideas? I have a snippet but do not know how to attach it to this
message.

Welcome to Usenet, you can't attach photos. Takes up too much bandwidth.

As for your font problem you might try playing with the background and game
board setup in Hearts, or adjust your windows colors (right click desktop,
choose personalize) until you land a color scheme that works for you.

Reason fonts are black and white is so they will show up on light and dark
background.

Good luck.
A.

Hi all, new guy here. I have the same problem. I'm running vista on a HP
dv9612ca laptop and changing the game settings doesn't fix it. I've
updated the bios and video drivers as well and it's still a no go :(

Never mind, I found the fix for my problem, set the nvidia control pane
3d settings to "let the application decide". I had changed it awhil
back to highest quality setting and that's what messed up the fonts

4. Player's name in Hearts 

Hi,

My wife has just bought a laptop and has been playing the included "Hearts" 
game that comes with Vista Basic. 

I have set so that her name -Pat- appears as the key player in the game but 
for no apparent reason sometimes she becomes 'User' and Pat is not shown on 
the screen.

There is nothing I can see to cause this but advice from one of you 
knowledgeable people out there would be appreciated and might keep me out of 
the doghouse.

Thank you,

Aitch
