multi-tabling

What settings are best for 3 or 4 tables... because 1280 x 1024 doesn't cut it... what type of video driver is needed? I have a RADEON 9550 and can't seem to get it bigger than 1280 x 1024.

you have an LCD monitor? you'll need to get a more expensive one that can handle higher resolutions.

1600 x 1200 or 1920 x 1200 resolution. Not sure what videocard you need though, I have a 128mb radeonx300 which works fine

you're probably right...

This is my monitor: Samsumg 17´lcd 171v

Ideal resolution is 1600x1200...four tables on 1 screen with no overlap.

In your case your video card is not the problem...1280x 1024 is max resolution with most LCDs.

You'll need an expensive (~1500USD) 21" LCD to get a 1600x1200 resolution.

The other option, which is quite cheap, is dual monitors. All you need is a video card with two ports. I run an Nvidia 6800 GT with 2 17" LCDs in rotated mode and it works a treat...3 table no overlaps + read 2+2 or pokertracker. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Dual monitors are also great for things like assignments, data entry, or posting on forums.

I think a 20" LCD should do, to get 1600x1200. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

You're right.

I have a 128MB PCI Express™ x16 (DVI/VGA/TV-out) ATI Radeon™ X300 SE Video Card and I can't get 1600x1200.

might be your monitor

Yup. Most monitors don't support the required 1600x1200.

FWIW, you don't need to get an LCD screen, since LCD's that support 1600x1200 are very expensive. I have a nice 19" LCD that I use at school that does not support it, and then I come home and use a 19" old-school (I'm talking 5 years old) monitor that does.
