Tiny fonts on Mio 558 (WM3).System fault?

[AllyCat]

Hi,

Just switched on my Mio 558 and most applications display with a tiny (almost unreadable) font, often filling just the top left hand side of the screen. It looks as if an OS flag is telling the applications that they're writing to a VGA screen! But this isn't WM5 or even WM3(SE).

I've tried both soft and hard resets with no change. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

Most "system" menus are OK (but not, for example, setting the clock), and some applications actually run in a "mixed" mode. For example, Memory Map displays its maps and menus correctly, but if I select the "change map" option, the map list has the tiny font.

Any suggestions, or is this a matter of returning it to the supplier (it's still under warranty, but I don't want to part with it needlessly).

Thanks, Alan.

Have you played with a registry editor lately?

Hi Lutz,

I hoped I'd hear from someone like you

No, I haven't used a regsitry editor at all, but maybe that's what I need to do?

I am going away for the weekend soon, so if I don't reply again immediately, it's not because I've lost interest or fixed it.

Thanks, Alan.
