: : New stuff below... : : : I checked on the U3100 and the best settings : : : according to their : : : support is to set the monitor to display in : : : 800x600 60Hz 37.79Khz I tried these settings : : : on mine and all of you above games look great! : : How do you adjust the Hz the monitor is running at? I have no clue if mine is set right... : Go to Control Panel/Display then set it to 800x600 : Then click Advanced then Adjustment (Note I have an Ati Graphics card that provides : these drivers, other cards may be similar?) : Then set the refresh (V-freq) to 60Hz. Adjust the : H-freq using the click arrows to ~37.79. The screen should look : centered and clear when properly adjusted. : : : They all fit perfectly on the screen and have bright vivid colors. : : : In mame you need to set it to a default of 800x600. I then : : : set robotron back to 640x480 since I like it bigger and it : : : fits fine on the screen. Neogeo are a bit small but : : : the higher resolution makes them more detailed. : : Whenever I set some games (Simpsons comes to mind) to 800x600 the game screen actually gets smaller than when set to auto size. It fits good on auto, but takes less than 1/2 the screen when I try to set it...any ideas or is this normal? : Auto seems to be a poor choice when using the U3100(Its great for modern pc monitors) since it : can send the monitor out of spec. Out of spec setting can cause get headaches like killing windows : vga drivers(boot in safe mode and fix) or frying your monitor :-(. I don't usually try mame betas : so I haven't tried the Simpsons, but generally if you run in 800x600 you will have more detail, but : smaller picture. Try setting the resolution for that game in mame to suit your preference (don't : go above 800x600). : : : If you have any other questions check out my ArcadePC : : : review at : : : www.noontidenight.com/arcadepc : : : L.
