Create a reg_sz string value name "fontsmoothing" (if this value doesn't exist). Right click on the option fontsmoothing, and from the drop down menu, select modify. In the modify dialog box, enter value data "2". Now, search for dword value name "fontsmoothingtype", create if not existing. Right-click on it and modify the value data with "1". This enables the setting. Logoff your system. For disabling, just set "0" in both registry entries. When editing the registry it is highly recommended to run a quick scan for optimization, you can test your system now for free.
