No, not at all. I think that maybe the wires in this new house are of a cheaper quality. So all of the pictures I see on the internet are of a lower quality as a result of the lower quality wires that the information is passing through. As with most wires I think because they are of a lesser quality, the information cannot be passed though as a high enough quality for my laptop to download all of the image so I can see it all. It's not just the photo's I'm having a problem with ? My internet is slower, my hotmail freezes and youtube video's aren't loading. And if my laptop can't show the data properly how come photo's I've got saved to my laptop off my camera and stuff are still in high quality ? I haven't changed anything on my laptop, I haven't even turned it on for a week or so. I turned it on the other day and I was like "Oh shit, my internets not showing color gradients....hmmm" Checked my res, checked my color settings (still at 32 bit) and nothing has changed from optimum performance. So I checked my internet setting and all is good, I changed browsers and it was the same. I downloaded Firefox and still got the same. Edit - And I can't sign into hotmail, it constantly signs me in and then out.
