    As far as I can see, only one screenshot.
    Besides, at a mere 1024x768 resolution.

    I was thinking of 1600x1200 or higher,
    preferably uncompressed tif or bmp.

      Zerver> It took me 5 min to find what you're looking for, and I'm on a single ISDN right now...

      Check here for screenshots..

      Granted they aren't 1600*1200, but still...

      Besides, there are no reason to be angry at anyone here...

              Well, it's just that I find it surprising to see that an ultra high-res multi-monitor gfx card like this one comes with a 1024x768 demo.

                Well with all the 16XFAA and additional eye candy is doesn't need to be any higher is the thinking behind that one I expect.

                  Yup, 16x FAA on that rez is as high as you could possibly need (for now)

                    Someone once said that 640KB is all the memory a computer could possibly need. Somehow I feel that this statement makes sense here... :-]

                        Haing just seen the demo with my own eyes, believe me you do not need anything above 1024X768 it is amazing, easily looks like it is running at 1600x1200.

                          Any .exe file can be renamed to a .scr file and then be used as a screensaver, maybe one of the BBz can test if it works on the demo as wel.
                          So has anyone tried this with the reef demo yet?

                          I do know this works, because I've had to hack into a WindowsNT system once by renaming cmd.exe to cmd.scr and setting it as the screensaver (fyi: it was my own computer, so don't worry about me hacking into any of yours ;-)

                            By renaming the demo to a .scr file it will run, but I don't think it will stop when you move your mouse.

                            But then again I don't know if you can adjust the demo to bypass that.............
                            Now what was my sig again......

                              You can run it as a screensaver by one or two methods but you have to hit Esc to end it, mouse movement doesn't do it.

                                that will work for me

                                Good enough! ;-)
