Tim, Is it unusual for a video card to not be able to create successful video from the register values retrieved by MAKEFCFG.EXE? <---<< After a little trial and error I was able to run MAKEFCFG.EXE and put the new values into FRACTINT.CFG, but my Sony Trinitron monitor (branded by Dell) does not sync to the video, as it does when given video for these same resolutions by FRACTINT running on a different (older) machine. I eventually removed all the duplicate lines and blank lines and turned the spaces into tabs and lined up the columns of commas in FRACTINT.CFG so that FRACTINT would accept the file. The line lengths are all the same as or less than existing working lines. FRACTINT shows the new resolutions when the <del> key is pressed but the monitor either says "No Video" or "Out of Scan Range" when any of the new higher resolutions are chosen. The register values look similar to some other values used by other video cards, so the ones retrieved by MAKEFCFG.EXE are not totally off the wall. I put a copy of my VESA NVIDIA on-the-system-board graphics video chip values from my eMachines WinXP computer as determined by MAKEFCFG.EXE below. I was initially encouraged when I saw the values '4f02' and 28 being put into registers since those values were being use in other lines in FRACTINT.CFG -- lines that were supplied with the V 20.0 distribution. However, no joy. Any thoughts on what's going on would be appreciated.

Once you figure it [axis symmetry] out write it up and we'll put it in the docs :-) Sure, no problem. Thanks for your explanation.

...on my way to or from my mother's memorial service. I'm sorry to hear about your mother.
