My cheapo trident 8900 came with it and it allows you to set vertical spacing and other settings for individual resolutions. Much better than the programs that came with my tseng based card. I'm using a Viewsonic 6 with my card and am VERY pleased. I run OS/2 at 1024x768 without straining my eyes at all. I like the Viewsonic image quality better than the CTX I was also considering. -- Bruce White(bewhite@matt.ksu.ksu.edu) "You're only young once, but you can be immature for the rest of your life."
