I agree with this.  In the past, I  also used a MAC adapter with the Twin 
Turbo/MacMagic Voodoo1 combination and never had resolution problems.  When I 
ditched the Twin Turbo/MacMagic for a Voodoo 5 card, resolution problems 
started.  Sometimes I'll boot in at 640X480 but once I get to the desktop it 
will switch back to original settings.  I also get icons all over the place 
from certain games but Desktop Resetter fixes that.  The monitor has a PC 
plug and so does the Voodoo card so I am currently using no adapter.  The 
danger with this is ALL possible resolutions are displayed (not just the 
supported MAC resolutions) so it was trial an error to find which ones 
actually worked with my monitor.
