Looks like an error in the example
According to the docs
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms724947.aspx)
it should be like this
SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETFONTSMOOTHING,
TRUE,
0,
SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE | SPIF_SENDCHANGE);
SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETFONTSMOOTHINGTYPE,
0,
FE_FONTSMOOTHINGCLEARTYPE,
SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE | SPIF_SENDCHANGE);
AliR.
That does not compile, I cut-and-pasted it verbatim.

Executing the following code changes font smoothing to Standard rather
than
ClearType. This is running on Windows XP Pro and compiled with MSVC++
6.0. I tried it again with MSVC++ 2005, same result.
SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETFONTSMOOTHING,
TRUE,
0,
SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE | SPIF_SENDCHANGE);
SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETFONTSMOOTHINGTYPE,
FE_FONTSMOOTHINGCLEARTYPE,
0,
SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE | SPIF_SENDCHANGE);
