Thanks Thierry, but I've failed to get to this ftp site because when I tried,
the message on the monitor was: SURF CONTROL. ACCESS DENIED. Why do you think
the pc said this to me? Thanks.

One morning my Win98SE pc suffered apower surge when powered up; power
supply
gave out smoke and a burnig stench. PSU was changed, but windows failed to
boot, it was re-installed without formatting drive C: . It went well but
the
display was 16 colour only. Pc has an s3 Trio 3D/2X graphics card only;
this
is what monitor feeds on. Win98SE was reinstalled again. This time diplay
showed 16 colours, 256 colours and 16bit high colour only. In device
manager,
driver for the above graphics card is installed and no exclamation mark is
seen. It is also stated that "This device is working properly". However,
when
I change colour setting to 16bit High colour and change pixels setting to
800
by 600 pixels and restart, it remanins on 16 colours and 640 by 480
pixels.
Also it feezes often and I have to restart pc always. What have I done
wrong
or what havent I done? Please help me out here. Thanx in advance.
