I have followed articles on 256 Colors for windows and I tried everything for my Multi-sync Mono SVGA and STB PowerView. I couldn't see any difference. Could you help me for my Monitor if you have the same experience. My monitor system is composed of TmV Multi-sync High-Res Mono monitor (it can display infinite shades with Analog signal) and STB PowerView (512k) which shows max 1024 by 786 with 16 colors and 640 by 480 with 256 colors. I had a window driver for this system. After I switched to 640-by-480, when I tried to change colors for window, there was no difference. Still there are clumsy shades (not exact shades) when making new color. But my demo program to show capa. of monitor display fantastic shades. Is this problem from monitor, or my fault? Please share your valuable experience or knowledge with me. Many net-users are interested in 256 colors and so do I. But now I am very disappointed with my monitors. If this mono monitor can't display such a fantastic things, could you recommend me a good but cheap monitor system? Thank you in advance. -------------- Cheong H.
