setting resolution on NEC myltisync monitor on a macG3

Hi,

I have a NEC multisync 1560nx lcd monitor, i have plugged it into my G3 but when i try to change the resolution to 1024-768 it wont change, i downloaded the multisync software for mac os9 and when i try to unstuff it it says....."decoding was incomplete because an unknown BINHEX header version was detected"


I have no idea what this means or how to solve the problem, please could anyone help with this, many thanks.

Andy.

Hi, Andy -

I downloaded that file (specifically the version for OS 9) and it fully auto-decompressed without problem. This was using OS 9.1 and IE 5.1.7 and its built-in decompression capabilities.

I also tested the downloaded file which was decompressed from the source's .hqx file, one named " NaViSet for Mac OS 9 V1.0.10.se" - the suffix should probably be .sea, which indicates it is a self-extracting file, one which does not need any assistance in order to decompress, but the name length exceeded OS 9's capability.

The file type indicates it was made by Stuffit Deluxe v. 7, but when I dropped it onto Stuffit Expander 5.5 it decompressed without a problem.

It also decompressed properly when I double-clicked that file, although it took a bit longer than using Stuffit Expander, and also required a response to a Navigation Services intercept (a request as to where to place the decompressed file).

Based on that testing, it would appear there is nothing wrong with the download or the file itself. Rather, it may be a function of how your software is configured for decompression of files - what version(s) of Stuffit Expander you have available, what browser you are using, etc.

Try dropping the initial (uncompressed) file onto the icon for Stuffit Expander.
