Since this conversation is on graphic boards, perhaps one can advise me on a decent graphic combo to work with the Targa+32. I am not wanting to spend much of anything. Normaly I sell TRIDENT or the ET4000 chipset boards with one meg. I will need a board to use with the Targa+ for VGA right? I also want to be able to view on both the NTSC monitor and the VGA monitor simultaniously as I do now. I would like to be able to use the Cardinal SnapPlus board that I currently have but I do not know if this will work or not as the Cardinal will not be able to connect via cable as thruput to the Targa. There may be a conflict as well. I only use WINDOWS for my desktop publishing, accounting, HSC Morph, Wave Sound file creation, and here on the forum, (and Battle Chess) and only run in 640x480x32. Don't care for 800×600 or 1024×768, although the SnapPlus is capable, I also have a Creative labs Video Blaster here in stock that no one wants to buy, but I think that will be the same problem (or worse) because it requires a VGA board to be connected such as the Targa, whereas the SnapPlus does not. If you know of anyone running both a Targa and a SnapPlus, this info I can use, else I will need to sell the SnapPlus if the two will not work together. I have not tried this yet, just hoping to save a day of aggrevation. Still waiting on the shipment of the rest of my equipment, MAN this is taking a LONG time to get here!
