I am surprised you have any problems with older games.
I have an HD5870 & over a 2 1/2 years playing of a very wide variety
of games from the mid '90's onward I can't think of one
that had a problem due to the Graphic Card.
Perhaps 'Outcast' a 1999 action adventure where it wanted a strange
variation
of 640x480 that I can't get to display full screen - it comes up as a
window.
I play in various resolutions & synch rates on a CRT Monitor .
I guess there would be problems If you wanted to get older games up to
a 'modern' high resolution on a LCD .
Perhaps you refering to difficulties due to Monitor.
