Supported Displays:  NeXT designs and tests its display adapter device drivers using very high frequency displays that can support display modes with very high resolutions and non-interlaced refresh rates, such as the NEC 5FG, NEC 6FG, and Nokia Multigraph 445X.  Read the owner's guide that comes with your display to ensure it can support the display mode you set in Configure.

Note:  This driver makes use of the display adapter's on-board BIOS to switch modes.  For this reason, refresh rates and other timing parameters may vary slightly between different BIOS versions.  If you are having difficulty with specific modes, you should first make sure your board has the latest BIOS version installed.

Warning:  Some vendors claim that you can use their display adapters at display modes with resolutions and refresh rates that exceed what their RAMDACs can support.  You can permanently damage your display adapter and computer by doing this.  Read the owner's guide that comes with your display adapter or contact its manufacturer to ensure that your adapter's RAMDAC can support the display mode you set in Configure.

Warning:  If you plan to change display adapters, be sure to use the Configure application to change the display driver to Default VGA Adapter before you remove the old display adapter (see NeXTanswer 1824 for details on changing display adapters).
