Richard,
Yes... you're right. We're asking the same question really. I'd come to
the same kludgy solution that you have, but I think my question/difficulty
goes a bit beyond yours. What monitor do you use with your 760? I've got
an NEC 3FGe lashed to the 755cx and it really is a nice unit, but using the
CX's display adapter, the monitor's image shifts from one side of the tube
to the other depending on SYNC settings; (ie: If I adjust the monitor's
800x600x72Hz display to center, the image will be off center as soon as I
boot to DOS or use a different screen resolution.) It's not a horrendous
problem because I grudgingly use Win95 99% of the time. However, I'd love
to NOT have to retune the monitor each time I boot to DOS, or have to look
at the '95 Logo off kilter every time I booth the machine. On my desktop,
my old display/controller combination, (Viewsonic 15/Diamond Viper) worked
well, because the controller could be pre-tuned for each setting such that
the picture would re-center itself if resolution or sync rates were altered.
Any ideas?
-Michael
PS: I still love this machine. Thanks again.
