VGA
Video graphics array. VGA and SVGA are video standards for video adapters with greater resolution and color display capabilities than previous standards.
video adapter
The logical circuitry that provides—in combination with the monitor—your system's video capabilities. A video adapter may be integrated into the system
board or may be an expansion card that plugs into an expansion slot.
video driver
A program that allows graphics-mode application programs and operating systems to display at a chosen resolution with the desired number of colors.
Video drivers may need to match the video adapter installed in the system.
video memory
Most VGA and SVGA video adapters include memory chips in addition to your system's RAM. The amount of video memory installed primarily influences the
number of colors that a program can display (with the appropriate video drivers and monitor capabilities).
video resolution
Video resolution—800 x 600, for example—is expressed as the number of pixels across by the number of pixels up and down. To display a program at a
specific graphics resolution, you must install the appropriate video drivers and your monitor must support the resolution.
