According to the documentation that came with my ATI VGA Wonder card (with
512K of memory), it can handle 1024X768 in either interlaced or non-
interlaced mode.  However, the documentation that came with my NEC 3D
states that it will do 1024X768 in non-interlaced mode only.  Thus, the
limiting factor is not the video card, but the monitor in my case.  Is it
because you only have 256K of memory which limits your video card to 
a non-interlaced signal at 1024X768 resolution?
