Thanks for the tip Graham, managed to get the monitor driver in exactly as
you outlined. However the driver for the NVIDIA GeForce 6610XL graphics
card remains a problem. Recommended settings are 1280 x 1024, H Freq 63.98
KXz, V Freq 60.02 Hz. Without the card driver Sax2 will not accept that and
I am still stuck with the VESA FrameBuffer driver for the graphics card and
1024 x 768. ( My PC does not have a floppy drive but the USB stick
substitution worked.).
