Small text 'bleeds'

Small text 'bleeds'

I'm not sure where to start...
Default text size when browsing in all browsers seems to 'bleed'. By that I mean that the text has ragged edges and solid texting becomes unreadable. It can be resolved by using 'control +' to increase the text size or by scrolling the screen. The monitor I noticed it on was an LG Flatron W2442PA (24"). I thought it might be the monitor so (using any viable excuse), I bought an Acer G245HQ (24"). It made no difference.

So I suspected the video drivers but they are up to date.

Here is my video info. It is a Gigabyte GA880MA UD2H motherboard with 12 gb memory.

I have tried VGA and HDMI with the same results.

Thoughts?

Test with another video card.
If it goes away with a new card disable the on-board and move on.
