If you place "1024x768" in the first position under Depth 16, does it
display cleanly at that resolution?  Do only the 1152x864 and 1280x1024
modes cause trouble with the right side banding?  Do you have any
documentation for the Trio 3D card which specifies the maximum memory
clock rate for your model?
