VI C2.5 client (ESX 3.5) left pane letters are not very clear

Hi,

Just upgraded an ESX 3.0.2 to 3.5 and installed the VIC 2.5 client on my laptop(XP), where VIC2.0 was already installed ( 2.5 is installed in a different directory )...

What I have noticed is that the left pane where you see all you Ressource pool and VM's, the letters are very fuzzy and not sharp at all... right pane and menus are clear, it's just the left pane...

I also tried installing VIC 2.5 on a vm ( win2K ) that never had VIC 2.0 installed and there, the letters are clear every where, including the left pane...

Wondering how I can solve this...

Thanks !!!

If you uninstall both VIC's from your laptop and re-install the 2.5 VIC does the problem remain?

I had the same thing on another laptop, uninstalled both versions, rebooted and reinstalled 2.5 and still the same problem...

Change the font smoothing type to "standard".
