Hi ... I have an old Shuttle barebone (SS40G - MB: FS40) with sis 730 chipset, I want connect it to my TV LCD Samsung with VGA connection
The TV supports a resolution of 1360 * 768 .. already tested with two notebook
But barebone allow me to choose only two resolutions, 800 * 600 and 1024 * 768 ..
I tried for to increase video memory , without success .. and upgrade drivers to the last version available on the manufacturer's website
I tried to force the resolution with powerstrip, but the button "Advanced timing options" remains disabled .. looking on google, thay say that often the problem is due to the "Hide modes this monitor can not display" ... but in my case the entry is in gray .. can only see that is disabled .. at least it seems
(too strange: in device manager under "display" it says plug and play, but in display proprieties it says "defoult monitor"
the operating system that is above is an XP sp3

direct link to latest BIOS
thank in advance (and excuse me for bad English )
sis 730 Vs LCD 1360x768 (Shuttle ss40g)
the SIS video bios doesn't support 1360x768 and the SIS Windows driver relies on the modes the video bios supports. either use Linux (try Ubuntu, it's very Windows-like) or email SIS to write a proper Windows driver for their legacy products (i doubt that they will even answer ))
If you email me include [WIMSBIOS] in the subject.
thanks for the answer ... the PC is for my mother, and she needs windowscp wrote:the SIS video bios doesn't support 1360x768 and the SIS Windows driver relies on the modes the video bios supports. either use Linux (try Ubuntu, it's very Windows-like) or email SIS to write a proper Windows driver for their legacy products (i doubt that they will even answer ))
now I'm looking for this .. do you know if it's compatible with 1360*768 ??
the SiS chip is capable of doing almost any resolution but the SiS Windows drivers are not.
i've never had problems with ATI or NVidia drivers on Windows. So you can go for a card with one of their chips. For 1360x768 in Truecolor you'd need approx. 4MB VGA RAM Don't forget to download the latest drivers from their homepage!
