I need help BADLY with this one!

[Superlinuslinus]

Hey,
I have a S3 Trio64+ vid.card in one computer but when trying to use it with a Goldstar 15" monitor I can only run 640x480 resolution. When I try any other res. (both higher and lower), everything looks warped and very dark...

This happens both in 3d(games with a v2 card) and in 2d. I've tried taking the v2 out and just using the s3 (without pass-through), but it doesn't help).

Do you guys have any idea why (I've tried downloading the latest drivers both for the S3 and the Goldstar)?

Thanks!

/ Linus

I would try manually adjusting your refresh rates. For some reason my Geforce2 using any of the Nvidia reference drivers would screw up my monitor and it was that it was setting the monitor to bizzare refresh rates. Maybe the reason 640 is the only one that works is that that is the only resolution that the monitor is on the right refresh rate. Hztool is a cool program that lets you set all your display settings at one time. For you monitor 75 is probably the highest for anything above 640x480. Hope this helps.
