Hi WINDOWS-Freaks !
I have a VGA-Card with a TSENG-3000-Chip (512K)and want to have 256 colours
for my WINDOWS 3.0. I have 256 Colours now but only in 640x480 mode.
I want the 800x600 mode with 256 colours. Does anyone know where I could
find such a driver ? I tried the cica.cica.indiana.edu server but there
were only the normal drivers. Does anyone know another WINDOWS server which
have such a driver ?
Thanx in advance,
Udo

Hi, there. I have followed articles on 256 Colors for windows and I tried
everything for my Multi-sync Mono SVGA and STB PowerView. I couldn't see
any difference. Could you help me for my Monitor if you have the same
experience. My monitor system is composed of TmV Multi-sync High-Res Mono
monitor (it can display infinite shades with Analog signal) and STB PowerView
(512k) which shows max 1024 by 786 with 16 colors and 640 by 480 with 256 colors.
I had a window driver for this system. After I switched to 640-by-480, when
I tried to change colors for window, there was no difference. Still there are
clumsy shades (not exact shades) when making new color. But my demo program
to show capa. of monitor display fantastic shades. Is this problem from
monitor, or my fault? Please share your valuable experience or knowledge
with me. Many net-users are interested in 256 colors and so do I. But
now I am very disappointed with my monitors. If this mono monitor can't
display such a fantastic things, could you recommend me a good but cheap
monitor system? Thank you in advance.

This would also explain, why on my monitor the windows-screen is at least 2 cm more left than normal. Using the BIOS-800x600x256 mode the picture is perfectly centered.
