#Stealth-64 Interlaced — declared parent_msg_num=(none), resolved parent_id points to #(none)
I know that it seems crazy to ask for interlaced modes with this card, but I am upgrading my display subsystem in two steps. Because I got a great price on a Steath-64 VRAM last weekend, I went for that first. Now I am saving my pennies for a new monitor. My current monitor is an NEC Multisync II that is at least seven and possibly eight years old. It would sure ease my pain if I had access to interlaced modes during this (hopefully short) transition period during which I am using a super fast video adapter with a really old display. My Stealth-64 came with version 1.20 drivers for Windows 3.1. While the IN-Control interface is great, there are no interlaced modes from which to choose. Is there a way? -=Ted Brengel=-

The Stealth 64 VRAM does not support interlaced modes. –Wayne Johnson Diamond Multimmedia Systems' ES Dept.

Wayne, Thanks for the prompt response. Of course, I am not overly disappointed (or surprised) that the Stealth-64 VRAM does not support interlaced modes. That will tend to speed the replacement of my eight-year-old Multisync II. Just one more little question, though. I ran WinBench 4.0 and got a graphics Winmark of 14.4 on my 486-66. Is that what you would expect from a Stealth-64 VRAM? Oh, BTW, I have been completely unable to connect to your BBS from San Diego. I get an answer and the tones sound good, but no connect. -=Ted Brengel=-
