Graphics question

[bluesmudge]

Question:

 

24 bit colour depth - whats the maximum resolution on a 3Mbyte memory buffer?

 

Of course to make it interesting this is a direct raster graphics display subsystem, with an aspect ratio of 4:3

 

cheers,

oh dear replying to my own thread how sad . . . . for those of you who want to know its 1024*1024 . . . . though im not too sure if th 4:3 aspect ratio bit affects that so if anyone knows t'would be greatful

 

**edit**

 

found it the answer is 1152 * 864 becuase in a 4:3 aspect ratio on the following resolutions are possible

 

800 x 600

1024 x 768

1152 x 864

1600 x 1200

 

I may have answered my own question but at least it may guide others in the future
