If you're dual-booting, with Windows installed, just boot into windows and see what it's set to. Use those figures. Plus, whenever you setup your video driver, you have to be in text mode, instead of graphical mode. Just open a terminal window (as root) and enter "init 3", then run the driver installer after you login to text mode as root. When you are done, just enter "init 5" to take you back into graphical mode. Hopefully, everything will be running smoothly. :) Ric -- ---------------------------------------------------- My father, Victor Moore (Vic) used to say: "There are two Great Sins in the world... ..the Sin of Ignorance, and the Sin of Stupidity.
