BTW, similar to using VESA mode for the Display card, can we use VESA monitors where we are not fully aware of exact details of monitor? If yes, which one will be the safest?
VESA is a standard for video bios. Most graphic boards support it. I dont think VESA standard applies to Monitors. For monitors check the back side of the cover to find if it is a VGA or SVGA. Even if you know this, the clock rates and frequencies differ from model to model for various resolutions. But there are a few common ones you could try. For eg. many older monitors (like my Philips 14C) have 800x600 @ 56Hz. Newer monitors may have 60Hz for that resolution. Monitors with different CRT sizes also have different frequencies. So I guess it is best to refer to the Monitor Manual as wrong settings may _physically_ damage it.
