I am trying to help somebody who recently purchased the 8*24 video card for use with the Apple 13" RGB monitr and a MacIIcx. The card is supposed to be able to show 16.7 million colors at once when in 24-bit mode, but when we go to the Monitors cdev, we are only given color options up to 256 colors at a time. We are running System 6.0.5 (which the card claims it requires) and our Monitors cdev is definitely the 6.0.5 version. All connections seem to be connected. The machine has 4 megs of RAM (although I don't think that should matter). Does anybody out there have suggestions for getting the Monitors cdev to allow us the choice of all 16.7 million colors? Please reply via email, I'll summarize back if many are interested. Thanks in advance, Tonya Byard
