I'm sure that the ATI vga Wonder doesn't interlace at 800x600 resolution,
and it interlaces at 1024x768 only if the monitor can't handle the full
resolution. For this purposes you have the capability to tell the board
precisely which kind of analog/multisynch monitor you have.
Remember that the ATI vga autodetects the kind of monitor, but I think
that is impossible to detect also brand name and fine resolution.

Disclaimer: I don't work for ATI, neither I will be paid for this comment.
