Yes. Just today I gave my old 17" CRT to an 86 year old whose computer is a collection of items donated by friends. (I got a Samsung 19" LCD on sale for $235+tax a couple weeks ago at Best Buy.)

Anyway, I figured I'd reset her screen size to the standard 1024x768. But I found that with her old video card she could only get 256 colors at that size. It would be difficult to find a better card for her old motherboard. Indeed the video card I have, Geforce 400 MX, works marginally with Win98. That is most of the time it works fine but occasionally locks up due to IRQ conflicts. It does not give the ability to reassign the IRQ. It runs perfectly from my Win2K partition because it depends on Win2K's more sophisticated handling of such conflicts.

Well, good luck and

6P Happy New Year «Â
