Under NT I can set my display to 70Hz refresh, 24-bit color, and 1600 x 1200. Using XF86Setup, when I try to get the card to run 1600 X 1200 at 60Hz and 24-bpp I get ripples of errant pixels running through the test pattern. I can see no way to get this to 70 Hz. Is this a limitation of the driver for this card? Is there a better driver?

I downloaded their 10 minute demo. It did the trick. Took a while to figure out how to get it configured and still have time to test it inside of ten minutes. They want $100 for it. It looks like the only option. I was disapointed to see that It does not support the Intellimouse. Steve W.D.McKinney wrote: > "Steven T.

I use a Logitech 4 button MouseMan, on the bus port. I'm CC'ing the support folks at Xi to see if it there is any future plans for your mouse.
