[KodeRhed]

Ive got a 3d prophet 4500 64mb TV out usen the Kyro2 chipset
and in win 98 @ 640x480 in windows or games it is all compressed in the middle of the screen....it looks like wide screen but all curved and 1/2 the screen worth lol its mental...i did what the tech email suggested which was to get rid of all the drivers and install the latest...so i formated and put on hte lastest drivers.../sigh no help...and the PowerVR drivers dont work at all....anyone had this problem? or know what might be causing it?

Could be a refresh rate problem with your monitor, what driver are you using for your monitor? If your using the windows default monitor driver then I suggest you get a proper driver for your monitor so everything is setup correctly.

Have you tried altering the screen using the controls on your monitor?

&quot;He dropped the resolution down too 640x480..&quot;

No the problem he initially had was at 640x480!

 

[RobsTV]

Many cards initially set to optimal refresh rate, which was probably too
much for his monitor to handle. Switching to adaptor default, or 60hz,
usually corrects that type of problem.

sorry...i fixed it by not using the default 1024X768 driver provided with windows...i messed around with the NEC monitors and found the one that didnt anihilate 640X480 and its sweet so far..not that i play in 640x480 but some games have a 648x480 menu and it looks total gimp

thanks uknem for suggesting that
