Use this to run 800x600 on Super 72.  

Just backup these files of yours first :-

        - sys:devs/monitors/super72#?
        - sys:prefs/env-archive/sys/overscan.prefs
        - sys:prefs/env-archive/sys/screenmode.prefs

    Then, just replace these files in this archive over your system files, and
then reset, and viola, 800x600 in Super72 ..  Plus as an added bonus, there
ain't much black border.  (around 1cm or so :-) )  I even got it to have NO
border at all, by switching the "Overscan" Button on the front of my C= 1942

    Depending on your monitor, you may have use the Vertical Size to stretch
your screen vertically.

    Tested on:-

    Works:
    ======
        - C= 1940 Monitor
        - C= 1942 Monitor
        - C= 1950 Monitor
        - Microvitec M1438
        - NEC 3D Multisync
        - Deltascan 1402

    Doesn't work on:
    ================
        - C= 1084  (!!)

    This should work on your multisync monitor.

Any dramas, just email me at hweight@iinet.net.au

v1.2 update.
============
    * Not much this time.  Apparently some M1438 Monitors don't like this
      driver that well.  Well, thanks to Oliver Something, he sent me a driver
      that might help..  Just copy it over the existing super72.info file in
      the devs:monitors directory.  This may work as well for monitors that
      don't like this..  You never know..
    * If you have a Commodore 1950 Monitor, maybe you should try the included
      overscan.prefs, as it might do something (I dunno, I NEVER seen a A1950).
      A lot of thanks to Chester Kat for sending this to me ..
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
v1.1 update.
============
    * This is a small update.  Apparently on a C=1950 Monitor, there may be a
      little problem with the Mouse Pointer.  It is double height or something.
      Well.. here is some pointer presets for you to expirement with.. 
        Many thanks to David Olsson for the presets.
    * Also some people may find that the colours aren't as bright as they
      were before.  But I think it is a minor thing, just turn your contrast/
      brightness up a little, if effected.
    * Also, another thing may happen is that you may run upon is that at some
      points it may "loose" around 60 pixels on the right hand side.  This is
      not anything major.  This just means that you have to run "iprefs"
      BEFORE you run the program/app.  This usually happens when you boot with
      no startup, and just run the monitor driver by itself.
    * Does it work fine on your monitor ?? is your monitor not listed above on
      the tested part?  If so, then please E-Mail me, so I can make a list of
      which monitors the driver runs on and ones that it won't.
    * Also, does this run on non-AGA Machines ???

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Are you into the demo scene ?
    Do you want a copy from the biggest demo collection ?
        Could you see all the stuff in the 5000 disks ?
            Well.. if you do.. check out /demo/mag/SceneArchives.lha 
                or try http://www.iinet.net.au/~hweight and click on the 
            "Scene Archives" link.
        You could enjoy all those trendy old and new demos
    See all the really classic demos
And there will be at least another 2000 disks coming soon !!!
