Thanks Allan,

My PC is a Dell Dimension (4100)
Card: Nvidia TNT2 M64 4xAGP (Dell)
Monitor: Dell E770p
Sound: Creative Sound Blaster AudioPCI 64V (WDM)

If anyone has XF86 running roughly the above could you please help me with
setting it up properly :-)

A cp of you /etc/XF86Config would be of great help

Martin
