I am preparing to purchase a new 386 machine, and would like advice on VGA/SVGA cards and monitors. At present I am planning on using the Paradise VGA Plus/16 board and the Panasonic C1381 monitor. Has anyone used these together? Does this combo work in 800 by 600 by 16-color mode? DOES IT FILCKER??? I cannot use the 800 by 600 by 16-color mode of my machine at work because it flickers too much - 640 by 480 by 16-color mode is OK (both using Windows 3.0). I have been told that this combo will work in 800 by 600 by 16-color mode non-interlaced; is this true? If so, it sounds like it should not flicker. Any suggestions about this or any other VGA/SVGA boards and monitors would be appreciated. Thanks, Tom Roberts att!ihlpl!tjrob TJROB@IHLPL.ATT.COM

A friend of mine just bought a 1024 X 768 card with 1 meg. Windows is shrunk down to the size of a peanut, with miniature icons, windows etc. What he wanted was everything the same size as 640 X 480, but in a higher resolution. I'm curious to see what response you get. Good luck and happy hunting! G. Farrell
