The problem as originally reported is probably a design in the monitor.
Some multisync monitors with RGB input can handle 262 lines in 1/60 second
yet refuse to do 262.5 lines per frame.

The place where Augnet meets has the opposite problem.  The large screen
monitor there has a composite input that gets all upset if the incoming
signal is not interlaced.  They have to use SetLace (or LaceTogl) to force
the interlace signal when showing 640x200 or 320x200 screens.
