    You can try one of the following:
    • You could Increase the default website font size using the settings menu of your webbrowser, so images won't be scaled at all (most times that's not nessecary, your eyes will relax a lot by bigger text alone).
    • If you're using Firefox, you could install the "nosquint" Addon. It allows you to conveniently set separate default zoom levels for text and images and will be using that for new websites, while it does still remember the zoom levels you assigned to websites you already visited. This is a more configurable version of simply telling Firefox to only zoom text but not images.
    • Firefox 3 has an image scaling behavior that differs from Firefox 2, see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=423756#c78 on how to disable it in Firefox 3.6 and up (Firefox 3.6 is not yet available but will be out very soon). Also see https://developer.mozilla.org/En/CSS/Image-rendering for more information and examples on this.

    What browser are you using?

    Hi there fellow M4400 users

    I have searched the internet and it seems the following problem i have is very common! But i dont know if there are any other M4400 users out there that have the same problem. I just upgraded to Woindows 7 Ultimate 64bit form Vista Business 64bit and i have noticed its a lot faster but the only thing is when i try to copy and transfer big files of 2-4gigs (photos, films) it takes forever, writing at about 5-10 mb/s (sometimes 20 if im lucky!).

    One hard drive is an external the other internal, SATA (internal) and FIrewire(ext). I had this problem with vista but it was cured by updating the ricoh Chipset driver and uninstalling Webroot Spysweeper. I have disconnected from antivirus and spyware programs but no luck?!

    anyone out there that can lend a helping hand to a confused dell M4400 user?!
    i have updated all drivers from dell support (intel matrix storage, SATA drivers etc...)and no luck again??? Dell support team are also mystified??!

    cheers for any help in advance

    ful

    20ish was what i got copying to external under both vista and 7. isnt that the normal rate for USB?? if you are copying lots of small files, they will transfer more slowly than a few large files.

    Hi in here..
    Im new here and kind of a newbie with this new laptop. But i hope that someone will answer my silly questions :)

    I have noticed a kind of a sim card slot behind the battery.
    Can I put a sim card in there, an use that istead og my USB 3G router ?

    I also have a card reader on the right side of the laptop, what can i use that slot for ?

    And next to the power plug-in, there is a kind of HDMI plug-in. Its another type of HDMI, but i cant figure out where i can use this ? My flat screen dosnt have anything like that.

    Hope that someone can help me.
