Jay, Have you done a search on the net for Monitor specs? I have an
old monitor that I had no specs for and did a search. There is a site
( the address of which I can't find :-( ) that has specs for just about
every monitor made. It took me a while to find it but I now can do up
to 1280x1024, whereas before I was stuck at 800x600.
Hope you find that site! Wish I could find the URL, sorry.

It is easier to change the specification to fit the program than vice
versa.
