Where would I find if I have video adapter or not? On my tower? I have a Gateway 710 Series and it has two ports. One has an adapter already. As to Walmart, they don't carry ViewSonic Monitors. There is a huge difference between the CRTs I have (one is from Gateway and the other is ViewSonic). Color is better on the ViewSonic. Need it for the digital art I do. You didn't answer how a wide screen differs from 1024 by 768 resolution? What does it do to programs? Judith ____________________ Walmart has 15 to 24 inch LCD monitors and HDTVs starting at around $100 to about $250. Easier and better return policy too. Also, be sure your computer has a video adapter that supports wide screen resolutions. If it came with a CRT monitor it probably does not.
