I recently bought a Mega-2 (via good old UseNet) and find when I
install it the screen display on my SM124 monochrome monitor is
appreciably smaller than the display I had with my 520. I've seen
reference on the net to complaints about the black borders, but I never
appreciated what the noise was all about, so I didn't pay careful
attention. If someone can enlighten me on the cause and any possible
fixes (I recall mention of a program called bigscreen or somthing like
that), it would be appreciated.

It's a hardwire mod. and simple for those with soldering experience. There was mention there of a half dozen more mods, kits, and monitors that provide enhanced video on the ST. Overscan is a German product I believe. -PV- /+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+\ + COMMENTS COMPLIMENTS CONTINOUS COMPLAINTS + " COURTESY: Paul Varn " + UUCP: pv@polari GEnie: p.varn + \+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+/
