Yes, I am running FC1. My video card is an Intel 815. I chose the monitor setting for ViewSonic M70, but mine is actually a G70m. However, there is no selection for it. My PC is a Compaq Deskpro EN, PIII 866MHz. I didn't do any other tinkering my with settings other than selecting the above in the GUI display config. Thanks....Paul
