Ok the Quadra 605,
I installed x2 512k VRAM sticks, and it still will not allow me a resolution past 800x600, however it does allow millions of colors now.
from lem:
video: 512 KB VRAM, expandable to 1 MB (remove both 256K VRAM SIMMs, plug in 512K replacements; supports 512 x 384, 640 x 480, 640 x 870, 832 x 624, 1024 x 768, and 1152 x 870 resolutions. We have a field report of an 800 x 600 option as well.
i wonder if its because of the settings on my VGA to DB15 adaptor, i doubt it however because in its current setting, my 7500 will display 1152x870
the only time i have to mess with the adaptor is when i plug in the IIsi, i have to change it from only #5 being on, to only #1 being on, for 640x480.
also with the Quadra 700 i installed the 2 (256k) simms from the q605, so the q700 should have a total of 1mb ram now.
Its pretty much the same thing will not allow me to go past 800x600,
The quadra 700 has 8 vram slots, I know they have to be installed as pairs, just wondering where i guess, Near the system ram or in the middle.
i guess maybe i should play with my stupid VGA to DB15 adaptor, now that i am thinking of it.
