If you want help, can you please supply details of your video card, motherboard
and monitor. I have a new set up which caused me some grief because I could
not get a picture. Once I began asking questions, peple pointed me at the
right drivers and information. I'd like to help if I could ... because I spent
a miserable fortnight wondering if I had wasted my money on the new
motherboard, etc. It would run Win98, but I wanted a real challenge!!
Looking forward to hearing from you.
