I actually don't use IM at all.

You and 50 other people.
I used to love ICQ like back in 1997 (I feel old now)
But I'm the type that feels like I have to respond to everyone and I eventually blew a whole evening talking.

I have a hard enough time nowadays just trying to manage my time without IM

haha. So your famous!

Also, can anyone awnser my above question? (If the VGA adapter doesnt work with my monitor, is there anyway to decrease the monitors requirements to 640x480 or is there anyway to increase the resolution given by VGA cable so it meets the requirements of the lcd?)

:3

I already answered on the last page. It's not possible.

and the max output the Dreamcast can do if it's on VGA is like 740* something, but not all games do it. On my Grandmas HDTV on vga mode it tells you the current aspect ratio, and on all my games but like 2 its on 640*480.

Yea, I know but I was wondering about the lcd portion. If I could somehow lower the LCD's screen resolution so it would work.

Also racket: I gave you a email and requested information about your money order method. (Like your bank info so I could do money order.)

I tried for like 6 months, and could never get it to work. I even forced my computer into 640*480 so the screen would be forced into it, and plugged the DC in, and it still didn't work.
