Simon is right, these are the facts:
Monitor spec: vrt19-da & d4 1280x1024 70kHz 66 Hz
Classifying of PMAGB-B cards:
HX graphics options:
OPTIONS RESOLUTION JUMPER CLOCK
PMAGB-BA/BB 1280X1024 72Hz off 130. mhz
1280X1024 66Hz on 119. mhz
PMAGB-BC/BD 1280X1024 72Hz off 130. mhz
1024x864 60Hz on 74. mhz
PMAGB-BE/BF 1280X1024 72Hz off 130. mhz
1024x768 72Hz on 130. mhz
NOTE: To determine the actual HX graphics option installed in a
system, you must physically look at the clock chips on the option
card. All modules will have a 54-21143-0x part number. The variant
determines the type of option card. In all cases I have not
found a variant on the boards.
So you need to jumper Osc 1 and make sure it is a 119. MHz crystal.
