I have a problem with my computer settings or something. It is all pixely, not solid. Where the color is supposed to be solid it isn't it just has SPOTS and stuff. I need to know how to get rid of it.:curse:

Mostly a guess, but it may be all you need to do is install, or reinstall, the video drivers.
To do that right click on My Computer, left click on Properties. Click on the Device Manager tab. Double click on "Display Adapters." If something other than "Standard VGA" is listed there, double click it. Click on the Drivers tab. Click on the Update Driver button and let it step through the wizard to see if Windows can reinstall the drivers by itself.
Oops...forgot to add this: Go to Control Panel>Display>Settings tab. Make sure the screen resolution is set to 800 X 600 or higher and the color to either 16 bit or 32 bit (not 16 colors, 16 bit). Click OK. The screen may go black momentarily, don't panic. When it comes back it'll ask if you want to keep the settings. If you like the way it looks, click Yes.
