The only problem with S3 VGA boards is that it supports 800x600 pixel
resolution starting at 60 Hz. Check your monitor's manual to check if
it supports this scan rate (most of them only support 56 Hz in 800x600
mode). S3 includes a program to set up the VGA's clock to whatever is
needed for your monitor, but as most software writes directly to video
hardware it almost gets nothing.
