Ok DJ, you got me started on that damn 21" gateway LCD and after a
freaking week of hell I have news. The 21" gateway only does 1680x1050
in xp and NOT in win98 when using a Geforce 6200 chipset agp card (PNY
brand).

So, I went with a Samsung 20.1" cuz it does 1600x1200 and my motherboad
supports that fine. I took the computer to best buy and we hooked it up
to make sure it worked in win98, it looked great.

So I get it home and plug it up and it goes to 1024x768. It was because
I have a 25' VGA cable and my motherboard chipset is a pussy. I put the
GeForce 6200 agp card back in and it shoves electricity down the
Samsungs throat and I get 1600x1200 in Win98SE finally. Unfortunately
the agp card share IRQ's with my 2 EDS cards so we'll see if it works ok
but at least i'm up in resolution now.

The 1600x1200 gives me 16 channels in the mixer window with 2 auxes and
the Submaster fader. Very good !!!!!!!!!

I literally spent over 15 hours screwing with this crap this week and I
hope I'm done for a while. If I ever see DJ I'm gonna format his drive !!!

Well, back to paris land. I got a new job and the guys at work are into
jamming so that will be sweet too.

Later,
John

On Win 98, this does not bode well at all. I think youre going to need an
active repeater for your VGA cable in order to use whatever graphics card it
is that doesn't share an IRQ with the AGP. I just thought I'd add one more
ray of sunshine to your day before you kill me.
