I use Cshow to view GIFS and it has the driver for TVGA and I haven't had any luck with it. I have a TVGA card with 512K and a Supercom 14" non-interlaced 800x600 monitor. Compushow has its standard C/MC/E/VGA modes which work beautifully. Then, with the install program, I installed the driver for TVGA which gave me a few more separate menu options from 640x400x256 to 1024x768x16 that apparently used the video hardware. Whenever I tried to use these modes, it appeared that it was out of horizontal sync. The picture would streak sideways on 640x480 and blow all across the screen in the 800x600. Any ideas? | James M.
