    Strange Xenarc Problem - Windows Related

    I just redid my carputer (as in formatted and reinstalled XP). Before I did that I ran it at 800x600 with no problems. Now when I try to run it at 800x600 my Xenarc detects it as 800x480 and cuts off a lot of the screen. It runs at 640x480 fine.

    How do I get it to run at 800x600 again? I didn't have problems before?

    Thanks

    Hey tbird,

    Double check the freqeuncy your card is pushing out - sounds like it is set to high, try lower like 60Hz or 75Hz, also check whether the correct drivers.

    Yep, try different frequencies. I think 75mhz is what you need to get 800X600.
