Steve, great price. What was shipping?
I have almost always used generate_yclock, as Advancemame generally picks the best mode. Given the range of this monitor, that's what I suggest. There are a few exceptions, like Turf Masters, which for some reason advmame picks a 31khz/60hz mode, so I just put in
turfmast/display_mode standard_320x224
(no particular timings mode was needed) and it displayed just right.
As mentioned above, since the card's drivers aren't being adjusted in the OS, all the card's normal functions are available at desktop level - I always run my desktop as high as possible - and then when games are loaded, it automatically switches accordingly. Of course, the XM I have requires the remote to adjust and set geometry, which can be hard to find online, let alone for a decent price (I did). As for the difference between 320x224 and 320x240, it's dependent on the design, and apparently those share the same mode on this monitor. My Billabs mulitsync has separate modes for them (lucky me), but it's a trifle, as it means you should only have small spaces above and below the image. The overall geometry should be the same, and is on my analog monitors.
If one is using soft15, they then need to look through the thread (or maybe it's in the wiki) for the non-50hz SVGA, XGA, etc modes SS has included....or calculate them yourself and add them to either the custom31khz or usermodes files.
