VGA Brute Force - alternatives?

Blade · 03-04-05, 04:20 PM

I know that Tweaks2K has this VGA Brute Force option, but are there other utilis that can do this?

Blade · 03-04-05, 06:09 PM

Ok found one!

Freeware...

http://www.geocities.co.jp/SiliconVa...upertino/2039/

'Force Hi-resolution tool V1.50'

You'll also want 'gsGetFile.dll' from the same page.

Unzip both files to the windows directory. After a reset, the program icon will be on settings/System tab.

I dont have my AXIM with me at the moment, does this work as expected?

Ok, works as expected.

The other is slightly better in that you get an icon for the program in control panel, and the developer is still actively updating his programs.

Good find though!

Certain programs have ability to run at higher res.(VGA)
These programs make them do.

Thank you lukas44. I had no idea this existed. The fact that no reset is needed is awesome!! I love it for Acrobat Reader.

Which one gives you an icon? It's not clear.

Excellent info on this thread. Finally Adobe Reader becomes useful so PDFs can be easily used with Mac/PPC combination.
Thanks all.

i tried these and found that nothing happens either with textmaker, netscape or pie. i followed directions as stated in this thread. what am i not doing?

Actually although I wnated them for Adobe, I have just tried the geocities prog on Textmaker and PIE and it also did not work for me (although fine with Adobe).
Any solutions?

I just tried both apps separately (forcehires and progresoswap) with IE and see absolutely no difference. OzVGA definitely works though. Maybe these resolution switchers only work with certain applications?
