- On trident boards (this may be the same for others, I think you have to
- set a jumper to run it non-interlaced mode. Also to achieve the higher vertical
- scan rate than the default, you have to also change a jumper. Both of these may
- be causing your problems. I had to set these on my card.
- Hope this helps, I sure other suggestions will follow..................
