Matrox G550 (maybe a clone) makes no more than 1280x1024 (?)
Recently ebay-ed a Matrox G550 (for but little money, but still...)
and now found out that no greater solution than 1280x1024 is available. The CD that came with the card is labelled "Millennium G550" and "20082 Bulk CD" The driver version installed is 5.72.21.0 Does anyone know if there exists (and how to come by) a more recent driver that night possibly feature 1600x1200 as well. I admit I haven't taken into account that *any* graphics card nowadays would miss that solution... The www.matrox.com HP does not really lead to some support for those older cards. JJ

Meanwhile, I found a driver download site where I obtained
version 5.96.4.0 Date: 2006-03-02 Should think this be the most recent version, but alas: still not more than them 1280x1024, to say 1280x960 with my 4:3 Monitor (a 20" ViewSonic with the native resolution 1600x1200). Any tweaks known of? JJ
