Hi, I haven't posted much here, but I love the whole fractal thing since I found Fractint 19.1 on a CDROM. I have a problem, which I will detail below. I am running a desktop pc (duh) with a new Pentium 4 1.8ghz, with 2 graphics cards : the main is an NVidia Geforce 4 MX440 64mb, and the other is my aging Ati 3DCharger 2mb. What I would like to know is this : Can I run Fractint in DOS on my ATI Card's monitor at 800x600 fullscreen yet continue to run normal windows operations on my NVidia's monitor? If you need any more info, please ask, but I hope someone can help here. Richard. PS - How do you get the par files in a text format? --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
