Flatscreen Question?
Hi all.

I'm looking to buy a flatsreen monitor. As I only have a puny onboard graphics adapter, does anyone know what I'll be limited to.

Can I buy just any size and format of screen and it'll work?

The attachment shows my adapter specs..

thanks for any help.

Any monitor should be OK.

Re: Flatscreen Question?
Even the worst display adapters can run high resolutions, you'll be fine.

Re: Flatscreen Question?
Thanks guys.

I'm slowly gaining back desk space.

I'm in the market for a 22" or higher if anyone has any suggestions or pointers.

Unfortunately, it has to be vga plug as thats all I have.
