| Post PII upgrade display problems Hi folkes I have just upgraded my PII motherboard to the following:- MSI KT3 333 Ultra 2 motherboard 256Mb DDR ram AMD Athlon 2000 CPU Geforce2MX 32Mb AGP graphics card I have retained the original HDD,s CD, Monitor, ect My main problem is the display on my screen is about 10-20% larger. I checked display properties and found that it was configured fot 2 monitors. Monitor 1 (enabled) is set for plug and play on NVIDIA geforce 2MX. Monitor 2 is disabled and is set for unknown monitor on NVIDIA geforce 2mx. I have tried to remove monitor 2 but when I boot up win98 it automatically reloads it. I suspect their is a problem in the BIOS but cannot get any further. So could someone point me in the right direction so that I have 1 monitor set up and that I can reduce the display. thanks in advance Paragon |

| Sounds more like a VGA-driver problem to me... did you download the latest Detonator drivers from nvidia.com?

| Its probably resolution unless you accidentally got some accessiblity option enabled. Go to Geforce FAQ to find what is the best Nvidia driver to use, I personally think its 23.11 if you don't got GF4, both my GF3 and GF2MX works well overclocked with 23.11.
