Thanks for your assistance, Paul, and you were right- I just had 20, and not 20.4.04, so I have downloaded that now.
 
I am still having trouble, though. Seems that no matter what higher video mode I choose, it says it's not available . . .  What is limiting me in that? Do i need to change something else first, like my actual monitor resolution?? I must be dense . . . Sorry.
 
Thanks ever so much for your guidance!

Whether you reload by using a saved parameter file (.PAR) or from a
FractInt saved graphic image (.GIF), you should be able to just use the
key to then allow a choice for your video mode. (Or use the
key to get you to the Main Menu and choose the option for a video mode.)

Try moving up one resolution higher each time until you come to one that
either no longer works or just produces a black screen. If it just has
a black screen, then image is still being generated (until you hear the
'beep') and can be saved to disc as a GIF file.

You can also run the MAKEFCFG.EXE to set your choices of resolution
based upon your system's hardware and driver configuration.

Then there is the alternative: Disk-Video Mode. By running the
following from a DOS prompt, you can produce the manual with all of the
instructions on this feature.

I hope it was the one from the following location:

http://www.fractint.org/ftp/current/dos/

Which has the version 20.4.04.


Sincerely,
