Notes to the table:
(1) “Simultaneous colors” - the number of colors or shades that can be di splayed at one time.
(2) This column refers to the old style display the mode was originally designed for. The 800h
× 600v graphics modes require a multifrequency monitor, and 1024h × 768v graphics modes
require an 8514 or equivalent compatible monitor.
(3) The 200-line vertical resolution modes are double-scanned to display 400 lines on screen.
(4) These modes require use of application-specific drivers that are found on your VGA
diskette created at the time of system backup (refer to Capabilities earlier in this chapter).
(5) Support ed on some notebooks.
