I guess he just means that now we can use much more powerful cards than what the AVGA offers.

true .
But on my montior the current setup looks way better than with the 9200 AGP version of the ArcadeVGA. And dont get me wrong the ArcadeVGA rocks.

It's able to magically display interlaced video modes on CGA monitors without flickering? :laugh2:

Before you laugh try it out . lm telling you -no flickering, no bull.
l suppose lm using this res cos of my pc applications require it.

You are saying that with an ArcadeVGA/800x600/CGA monitor you get flickering and with Soft15khz/800x600/CGA monitor you get no flickering? What you are describing is not possible and is probably going to mislead people. Regarding the superior image quality compared to the ArcadeVGA, maybe you'd be kind enough to post some before and after pictures? I'm genuinely curious to see what the difference is.

na l wasnt saying that you get a flickering picture with the ArcadeVga card at 800x600,
what l was trying to say after reading a few post ealier that lm not getting a flickery picture as some have been getting.
l seem to be getting a clearer and brighter picture with this software and video card and the drivers specified.
l will try and do some pics of the difference when l get the chance

You have to remember that most of the flickering in high resolutions doesn't come from the interlace. The flicker occurs when neighbouring lines have a high contrast difference.
Most of the time this happens when you show computer images like the windows desktop. Modern 3D games and movies does not flicker much in interlace. Low res arcade games with doubled resolutions (without filter) flickers even less.

Right.
I read his post as a comparison between the ArcadeVGA and Soft15khz and didn't want people to think they would not get flicker in Windows with Soft15khz compared to the ArcadeVGA.
