What's the purpose of the remote?  I see the jacks in the back for a remote, but why would I need it?  I suppose I could use one to turn on the monitor remotely (lol), but all I have to do is unplug, power off....plug back in, power on.  I'm thinking of getting one of those power strips that turn on the other outlets when the PC powers down for this.

Well, on my 3pg, the remote is used to stretch and shrink the screen as well as setting the overscan so if the screen is too small, it will increase the screen size. Very handy.  It can also set the position of the screen and brightness and contrast and color and tint etc etc etc

Anyone know how to set the resolution to 1024 x 768?  Mine maxes out at 800 x 600.  Not that big of a deal, but vector games don't display correctly, and I believe this resolution issue is the problem.

Thanks

The way I set mine to 1024x768 (which the book says it cannot do) is to set the monitor up as an "NEC multisync 3D" monitor in windows. That seems to set the refresh rate correctly. Try it out. I am not sure if it the same for the 4pg. Good luck.

Sounds like the remote is useful...anyone know where I can pick one up?  By the way, what do you set your refresh rate to?  60Hz seems to work well for mine, but I was wondering if I could set it higher...maybe with the remote?

How do you do this in Win XP?

Thanks

By the way, I found 2 of the 4PG's on Ebay:

Reserve price may be too high...buy it now is 350.  Also not sure what the shipping will be...have to email the guy...also it says the case is cracked on top (for both of them?)

I am not sure how you set it in XP. I have only done it with Win98SE. Maybe someone else couold help you with that one. Sorry. Good luck.

I just saw a pair of 4pgs on there for $50... and when I emailed the guy, he said shipping tends to run around $100.
