Thanks. I've got it running now at 1024 @ 60Hz, connected from my laptop to=
a 36" tv and it's doing fine, very readable. Btw, I've loaded Describe 5 u= nder Warp 4 and it's a really great set up. I'm writing final exams with it=
and printing to my old Laserjet 4M+.

You can always press Alt-F1 when "O=
S/2" appears in the top left corner
and then choose VGA and other option=
s from a menu. If you select VGA,
you need to reinstall SNAP. You can bo=
ot to text mode that way and
configure SNAP. The problem is that SNAP ca=
n't handle the resolution of
wide screens; up to 1280x1024 is fine.

Ok, thanks. One other video question for you Warp experts: I have
ma=

s=
