The only one that works with my old video card is 640x480 with the specific card ticked. Arachne says "Vesa detected" but those boxes don't work. Trial and error sorted things out ok and I have only the poorest understanding of video cards and modes. There aren't that many different choices to try, so I just tried them all. The potential new Arachne user (if there is such a beast) can probably handle that ok as they are going to have to have at least a passing aquaintence with DOS and other technical subjects like their own hardware and some internet basics.
