I hooked up this G4 Power Mac M5183 that I've been working on to the HP w2338h Monitor with the original video card that came with the Tower when new, my first boot the resolution was 1440x900 @ 59 Hertz (it was calibrating on boot) then we shut it down and rebooted and it calibrated again, now it's up to 1920x1080 @ 60 Hertz and that is max for this monitor and it's full screen too... I am wondering if this is good or could this ruin the monitor or video card??? Another question I have is I went to install my OS 9.2.2 retail disc and it wouldn't work (it worked with Jaguar???) So I downloaded OS 9 Netboot but it only runs classic, she can't boot into OS 9 from the Startup Disc in System Preferences, now she has the original OS 9.1 install disc and the restore disc if I run these will it erase Tiger??? She is really very happy with it so far and thanks everyone here who help me do this!!! Right now she is switching the monitor cable from HP PC Tower to Power Mac Tower and we are looking for a switch box so she doesn't have to do this in the future...
