The lap top gives the following information from MSD.EXE:
Video adapter type: XGA
Manufacturer: Unknown
Display type: VGA color
Video Mode: 3
Number of columns: 80
Number of rows: 25
Vesa support installed: No
Secondary adapter: VGA
I am going to try to contact IBM about Vesa support. However, if this is not
available for this model is there anything else I can do?
