I don't know about the monster and the monitor.inf file, but I have a Viper 330 and KFC 17", I also have a Stingray 128 w/ 6megs.. Well the stingray works great, but the Viper gives a very blurry screen after a few minutes... no help from TS either.. So I started to mess with monitor settings and found the Compaq monitor for 17" works perfect! been running for 4 days and no blurry screen! go figure its worth a shot.. -- David Email : durst@axtek.com Home : www.axtek.com/durst Desert Air : www.axtek.com/durst/da.htm Larry Schachter wrote in message <34DD3B7A.9A020DA8@5carroll.com>... >Have a new PII-300, 128 MB RAM, with an STB Velocity 128 (Riva 128), and >a 19" monitor.
