Once again it was time to replace my monitor. Knowing a new monitor would probably require a new video card, I carefully selected a card to work with the new screen. Little did I know, the video card requires a PCIe slot. Nowhere on the seller's page was there any mention of slot requirements. I went back and checked. PCIe is not compatable with PCI. No PCIe slot on my motherboard. New monitor does NOT like analog 1280x1024 mode and keeps trying to change to DVI 1600x1050! Really bites, as the screen is just one big blur.
After 35 years of working with computers, you would think I'd be used to getting blind-sided.
