My late father's Zenith ZCM-1492 (late 80s?) worked o.k. for me on older equipment, i.e., using EISA video cards, but since I've upgraded to motherboards that take only PCI and AGP cards, it works during Linux 8.0 setup, then degenerates to meaningless horizontal lines. It does the same thing on my other computer under W2K. Both have FIC AD11 mobos, Athlon 1600+ CPUs and PCI video cards (plain vanilla). Is there any way around this problem, or do I have to replace the monitor to use with newer cards?
I remember that several years ago it wouldn't work with his then-new HP Pavilion so I switched monitors with him, as I was then using an EIDE video.
My Sony 420GS works fine with both PCI cards.
I have two AT boxes with mobos and 300MHz chips which worked when I took them out of service and a box of ISA-EISA cards if anyone wants to trade for a monitor that will work with my PCI cards.
