Going to 800X600 on the D9200...questions on output.
« on: August 11, 2004, 07:10:29 pm »
Ok, I just got my D9200 running.  One of the reasons I wanted this monitor is because it is capable of going to 800x600 resolution (though not supported!).  So I swapped my res. and it did go, but the screen got really bright, and i noticed a brighter 1 - 2" line down the right side of the screen.  Anyone using thier 9200 in 800x600 that might have advice for me would be appriciated!  Thanks.

Personally I don't run at 800x600 but I did test it out.  What vertical refresh are you running at?  According to Wells Gardner it will run at 54Hz and that is why it is not advertised because it won't run at 60Hz.  I did notice however mine would sync at 60Hz.  So perhaps if it isn't already set to 54, give it a try, it may not like 60Hz.

Just a thought

Running a standard windows 800x600 resolution can seriously shorten your D9200's lifespan.  Only the newer models support this resolution.

If it can support 800x600 it should state so somewhere.  I'm not exactly sure if there's a model number or something you can check, but you could always call wells gardner and ask them.  They should be able to tell you.
