Perhaps also note that in the Bad Old Days it was possible to damage some monitors by 'overdriving' them - in other words asking them to display more lines and/or or frames per second than were supported by the specifications. The fact that a display might seem to 'work' was not enough to guarantee that it wasn't being overdriven, it was very important to check its manual. I don't know if it's a consideration here but I thought it worth a mention. -- 73, Ged. _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
