    AT! 128 XPERT screen shift

    Different resolutions/colours often need the monitor alignment to be adjusted.

    2 x Memory = No AGP

    I have just built a new system using a P4-1.8Ghz cpu on an Abit BD7-Raid MoBo. If I use 2 x 512Mb DDR's, the system will only fire up in 640x480x16 on an AGP card.
