Hi Joop;
No my card works fine. The reason is that it has only 512k mem with 256
colors. I wanted to up this as far as possible, but it seems that the only
ISA card I can find has 1mb. I don't think it's worth changing. The card I
use now makes it almost impossible to use Gimp for example.
Several times people on the list have said I should get a new computer.
This I will do but in 2-3 years. But even if I was to get a new one today
I would still want to upgrade this one as much as possible.
BTW, I want to thank everyone on the list for helping me. I know software
(that's why I use Linux :)), but all this new hardware is confusing.
Later!
