It'll also save me the trouble of trying to put a video of my monitor up on YouTube for all to see the noisy picture :) I can believe that despite trying different resolutions I was stuck with 1024x768 as well; the mouse pointer didn't appear to get any bigger. I'm assuming that's an LCD on analogue rather than DVI (can't even remember if the G450 can cope with DVI)? PS: For now I've managed to get the vesa driver to play nice (for some very slow definition of nice). Cheers, -- Mark A. R. Knight finger: markk@knigma.org Tel: +44 7880 556751 http://www.knigma.org/
