Dear all,
thanks a lot for the quick help. I am realy surprised.

I fixed the problem by changing the dip switches on the back of the
graphics card. The most detailed answer came from Sean O'Connell,
which describes the settings and for summary i list only his e-mail:

My question was:
> Dear managers,

> we have an AlphaStation 200 4/233 running DU V3.2D-1 (Rev. 41)
> with an ZLXp-E1 graphics card. But it seems, that this card is

> full resolution of 1280x1024.

> Any hints? Thanks in advance.
