It does not support 1600x1200 which my box DOES do. BUT..........I
returned it and when I did I checked out the Gateway computer and it the
computer DOES go to 1680x1050 and it looks incredible.
So...I checked out device manager and it's using an onboard Nvidia
Geforce 6100. I'm trying to find what motherboards have that chip cuz
it doesn't appear to be a card they sell and I'll just swap the
motherboard out because this display is really georgeous. Off to
searching motherboards now.....if anyone finds some MB's post them here
please.

And what do you think the odds are that this motherboard will run
win98se. I have yet to get Paris stable on XP. I wish it worked for me.
