     Well, I have finally fixed the problem!!! That's always the way isn't
it? Just as you are at the end of your rope... The soultion seemed to be
just reinstalling it. Before I reinstalled, however, I formated the
partition again (for good measure). I also selected the generic S3 Savage
driver and let it use the resolution it chose by default. Why it worked
correctly this time and not the last times I don't know. I will not question
these things. I will just give thanks to the gods of binary that all my bits
have been ordered according to their supreme will...

      Thank you for helping and trying to help yet another newbie...
