    Help with an Shuttle SN41G2 and dual LCD monitors

    I have an Shuttle SN41G2 with dual 17" 1280 x 1024 LCD monitors. I'm using the Shuttles built-in video card. If I run both monitors, the maximum color quality setting I can get is 16 bit, and if I run one monitor, I can get 32 bit. 16 bit looks pretty bad for most use.

    Is there a way I can get 32 bit color quality in my SN41G2 dual monitor setup with the built-in video card?

    Thanks.

    If i use the onboard graphics on my SN41G2 i get a blurry image at 1280x960 on one single monitor. The MX440 isn't very good at all. I wouldn't recommend it for dual monitors at high rez's.

    Get a new card tbh :/

    PhatGuppy - what amount of memory you allocating to the graphics card?. As i doubt you can run 1280 by 1024 with 64meg allocated, You would need to boost to 128meg to cope with it at 32bit.

    I think the maths is as follows, 1280 * 1024 * 32 = 41.9meg so times that by 2 and there you go ~84meg.

    I guess that would be worth a try if you haven't already?.

    Have you tried updating the drivers for the onboard GFX?
