Ruth, 
       If you can't find your manual or details of your monitor etc, you are 
welcome to borrow my copy of the latest RH CDs ver 7.1. I found much superior 
to ver 7.0 in detecting hardware. I also have the latest Mandrake 8.0 which I 
thought had even higher detection capabilities and is particularily suited to 
a newbie setting up their computer. I intend to to be at the SPIRELUG meeting 
this coming Monday evening and I will bring them with me. Failing that, 
postage or personal delivery/collection whichever suits your time factor.
