I think we may have been talking about: gaoption lcdusebios [auto | on | off] This option controls whether the LCD BIOS is used on laptops. This option defaults to auto, which means that the BIOS will be used when the laptop is booted on the LCD panel, and will not be used when it is booted on an external CRT monitor. If you frequently switch between LCD and CRT screens, you may wish to set this option to on, so that the graphics modes will be limited to those that can be properly displayed on the LCD panel. Note that many laptop chipset drivers have been updated to have more intelligent switching code, and will ignore this option. -- Lewis ------------------------------------------------------------- Lewis G Rosenthal, CNA, CLP, CLE Rosenthal & Rosenthal, LLC www.2rosenthals.com Need a managed Wi-Fi hotspot? www.hautspot.com Secure, stable, operating system www.ecomstation.com -------------------------------------------------------------
