[Smith]

There is no brightness configuration on my graphics controller, anywhere. My monitor supports 60hz, 70hz, 72hz, 75hz, and 85 hz, and it doesnt look like there arent any modes it doesnt support because i unticked "Hide modes that this monitor does not support", hit apply, and checked, and there were still the same refresh modes. My graphics card is an Intel® 82810E Graphics Controller. It is integrated.Grr 4mb. So i dont know. My resolution is 800x600 because my mom can't see anything when it is 1024x 768. Right now it says "800x600, True Color (24 Bit) 85 hz. I can't have High color with 24 bit. Which is better? True color? Or High color? I need to find drives so i can update.hmm

Man, too many numbres

My computer only has two color settings:
medium (16bit)
highest(32bit)

and if i uncheck the "modes this monitor cannot display, i get to choose from:
Lowest (8bit)
medium (16bit)
highest(32bit)

not sure that helps u at all lol.

and my refresh rate, with a resolution of 1252x864, is 75hz (highest monitor goes). at 1024x768 i use 85hx, and at 800x600 (rare) i use 100hz.

Had to laff about the mom bit . My kids bug me too about the 800x600 . But if you increase the font size for Mom you can have the best of both worlds .

noth of you, upgrade to a 17" monitor. It will make you and your kids happy. Now my dad can&#39;t stand to be near anything smaller than 17" lol.

my dad used to be like you and your mom to teh other guy, always used 800x600, i used 1024x768...now we both are happy at 1152x864.

Don&#39;t know where i would be with a 15" monitor...probably have commited suice long ago.

You spying on me



I cant stand it at 800 x 600 and dont have the money to upgrade. You should see it though, I have to pull the cord around the monitor tightly so the video feed wont go out. And the screen is offset about half an inch and I dont feel like fixing it.

I did have an 17" monitor.....but anyways, my friend gave me this game about ants for my birthday, and we couldnt play it because my monitor was so dark so his brother gave me his 2nd monitor, and now it work&#39;s perfectly, and my mom agreed to let me put the resolution at 1024&#33;&#33;&#33;
