I don't know how to find some of the information, ie video card, > clockchip, RAMDAC, can you help? Stephen Hupman Do you have documentation for this computer or the monitor? You can open up the box and look at the video card to find out what type it is. It may be integrated into the board so that will make it more difficult. If you have windows installed on this computer you can right click on "my computer" and select "properties", "device manager" and look at what type of display adapter your using. Most of the RAMDAC and clockchip info you don't need to know. At least I never have worried about it much. XF86Setup is an easy setup program to use. Just make sure you're vertical and horizontal sync lines are modest if you don't know exactly what they are. hth, kent
