VGA Palette
Snoop
Enables the palette snooping
feature if you installed more
than one VGA card in the
system, allowing the control
palette register (CPR) to
manage and update the VGA
RAM DAC (Digital Analog
Converter, a color data
storage) of each VGA card
installed in the system. The
snooping process lets the
CPR send a signal to all the
VGA cards so that they can
update their individual RAM
DACs. The signal goes
through the cards
continuously until all RAM
DAC data has been updated.
This allows the display of
multiple images on the
screen. Some VGA cards
have required settings for this
feature. Check your VGA
card manual before setting
this parameter.
