- I was wondering about something:
-
- I have standard VGA (256K with a standard VGA color monitor). Is it possible
- to have 640X480X256 using a SVGA 512K card on my standard VGA monitor? I mean,
- the monitor can do 640X480, but does the amount of simultaneously displayed
- colors depend on the card alone, or is it also bound by the monitor? Any
- comments?
- -Thanks.
