Replacing Monitors - "Cannot display video mode"
I'm switching out my old CRT Compaq FS7600 monitor (for specifications: see the link below) for a dell flat screen monitor. Unfortunately, this monitor says nothing about the model type, and I don't have the box as I got this from a friend. The VGA cord I have can connect a computer to a monitor with video resolution of up to 640x480. Instead of a regular graphics card, my computer uses an Intel(R) G33/G31 Express Chipset Family.
The display settings I normally use for the Compaq FS7600 monitor are 1024x768 pixels at 85 Hertz with 32-bit color, but I can get these settings down to at least 640x480 pixels at 59 Hertz with 256 colors (less than 16-bit I assume). I've tried the latter setting, but I still got the same message as before- "Cannot display video mode."
I'm hoping someone could help me find a solution to this problem! Thank you in advance!
