I have a Trident 8900 card. I am nearly satisfied with it. The resolution is excellent, and the colours good. I use a Compucon monitor. My problem is that one program (FRACTINT) sometimes leaves little 8-bit vertical strips the wrong colour. It is either incompatible software or a bung memory chip. Does anyone else know whether FRACTINT is supposed to work on this chip in this mode? -- Regards, Ron House. (s64421@zeus.usq.edu.au) (By post: Info Tech, U.C.S.Q. Toowoomba. Australia. 4350)
