My problem is this: I can't get a coherent resolution higher than 640x480. I've tried several different settings and if I get anything for higher resolutions at all, it's all just a scramble on the screen, as if something was scrolling at a really high speed. If anybody out there has the same equipment I do and has gotten around this problem, or if you have any suggestions on how to fix this problem, please contact me at ghurlman@vt.edu. Thank you. - Greg Hurlman ghurlman@vt.edu
