VS2005 on Vista too fuzzy.

[Frank Rizzo]

I've installed VS2005 + SP1 + SP1 Vista Update on Premier Home version
of Vista. I have my DPI cranked up to 120. As a result, the icons on
the VS2005 toolbar are totally fuzzy.

It's obvious that VS2005 is scaling up icons. Is there a way to disable
icon scaling?

There is a similar issue with Office 2007 on Windows XP with high DPI
and there used to be an identical issue with Office 2003 as well (
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922328 ).

Is there a fix somewhere or a registry setting?

Specifically, hunting around on the compatibility tab may get you somewhere.
