Many things are mixed up here. WM_BLOCK is WMAN2, which I've developed a long time after GD2 has seen the light. Also, higher resolutions were available long before GD2 came out. GD2 is only necessary for higher *colour depths*. I think the PE was necessary for higher resolutions, so you can test for that first. Afterwards IOP.FLIM should be able to find the screen limits.
