Post by: secretfj on 28 January 2005, 07:48:37

thanks
(P.S. are there any utility to check a display adapter can support what screen resolution?)

but 16/9 it's 1,7777777777777777777777777777778

your 1280/768 is 1,6666666666666666666666666666667

so, no true 16/9 widescreen....


v4 & v5 support in non 4/3 (1.33333) presets:

1280,1024\ ratio 1,25

1600,1024\ ratio 1,5625

seems most 16:9 LCd products are having 1280 X 768 as the max screen resolution
