no iyour pc has a matt antiglare lcd this is why it looks washed out verses a glossy screen. the atni glare lcd is readable in high lighting conditions becasue it does not reflect the light. a glossy lcd will look like a mirror in such situation. so there is no solution to this. you can replace your pc with hd model that will be glossy if you like. but its your choice

i think it's not a matter of  faulty screen because for instance i tried to play movies and the screen was perfect , i think it's some thing related to the setting and configurations ...

Thanks

no its not antiglare screens tend to be a bit blury becasue there is a polorized filiter on it but yours is way more blury that it should be. the blur is normally not noticable unless you are looking for it. you dont see the blur in movies becasue pixeles are in constantly changing so your eyes dont notice the blur but if you pause the video you will see the blur

well you can change the fonts only to do so plz follow these steps.

 

Windows gives you three preset choices (100%, 125%, or 150%) for making text, icons, and other items on your screen larger than normal size. This is the quickest and simplest way to change their size. But if you prefer, you can change their size to any number between 100% and 500% of normal size using the custom dots per inch (DPI) scale.

  1. Open Screen Resolution by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button, clicking Control Panel, and then, under Appearance and Personalization, clicking Adjust screen resolution.

  2. Click Set custom text size (DPI) in the left pane.

  3. Click the scale (ruler), drag the setting to whatever percentage size increase you want (100%-500%), and then click OK. (If you prefer, you can type a number between 100 and 500 in the box next to Scale to this percentage of normal size, and then click OK.)

  4. On the Display screen, click Apply.

    To see the change, close all of your programs and then log off of Windows. This change will take effect the next time you log on.

If you set the DPI too high for your display, it can increase the size of some items by so much that they no longer fit on your screen.

To make text and on-screen items clearer in programs that aren't designed for high DPI

If you set the dots per inch (DPI) higher than 144 while you're running Aero (the premium visual experience of Windows), text and other items on the screen might appear blurry in some programs that aren't designed for high–DPI display in this version of Windows. You can avoid this issue by using Windows XP style DPI scaling for these programs.

 

Detail of the Custom DPI Setting dialog boxSome programs display better using Windows XP style DPI scaling.
  1. Open Screen Resolution by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button, clicking Control Panel, and then, under Appearance and Personalization, clicking Adjust screen resolution.

  2. Click Set custom text size (DPI) in the left pane.

  3. Select the Use Windows XP style DPI scaling check box, and then click OK.

    To see the change, close all of your programs and then log off of Windows. This change will take effect the next time you log on.
