According to the literature that card will go up to 2048X1536 but I have =
never had it past 1280X1024 as that is the max resolution of my two LCD d=
isplays. The setup for me under Xandros was take the old card out, plug t=
he new card in and turn the machine on. That was LITERALLY all that I did=
 except to reset the resolution back up to 1280X1024 as 1024X768 as that =
is the Xandros default. You are correct about the outputs. I had to buy a=
n adaptor to go from digital to analog, $25 at CompUSA I think.=20

I hope this helps,=20

That was actually one of the cards i was looking at. What is the max
resolution the card supports.  I assume that its one vga and one dvi
output.  and how hard is it to set up?
