How to force video to low res?
If you're running a non Windows OS, and you want to force the boot video to low resolution [640 x480 or 800 x 600] is there a way do so through BIOS or another way?
Or once the OS is booted, is there a way to get around the OS to force the video down to a lower resolution? This is for onboard video chip SIS 740 with Phx BIOS, and SIS 700/740 motherboard. |

Which OS? They all let you specify the display resolution one way or another.

It is Linspire Linux. Can't find a way to adjust boot settings [like going into Windows boot settings menu or safe mode], and I have no video once it loads.
So I thought I could do so through BIOS or the like. Any way? |
