CONCLUSION BASED ON 32 DIFFERENT CARDS

Results by resolutions and color depth:

640x480x16 Colors = 100%
640x480x256 Colors = 100%
640x480x16Bits Colors = 97%

800x600x16 Colors = 100%
800x600x256 Colors = 100%
800x600x16Bits Colors = 100%

1024x768x16 Colors = 97%
1024x768x256 Colors = 97%
1024x768x16Bits Colors = 91%


General Commentary:

1) even old video cards are well supported (1Mo and 2Mo!)
2) ATi, nVidia and Intel are giving constant results (except i810)
3) You can always build a default.ezb safe menu in case your regular menu won't load

It is now up to you to decide which resolution and color depth you will use!
