[comp.windows.ms] SVGA & 386Enh mode. Help!

s33997h@saha.hut.fi (Olli Kihlberg) (12/21/90)

Hello!
I'm not an expert on this one so I hope you can help me.
The problem is: SuperVGA 800x600 doesn't work in 386 Enchanced mode.
I have no problems with real or standard modes. The computer is a
HP Vectra 16S (386sx) and the SVGA-card is original HP, but the main 
chip seems to be from Paradise. The SVGA-card has (I think) 256 kb.
I've tried both Paradise and generic (sv800.drv) drivers, but I always
get the same results: beautiful 800x600 screen in lower modes and
a garbage screen in 386-mode.  I also have tried the suggestion from
a Windows readme file: adding a "EMMEXCLUDE=C400-C7FF"-line in
[386Enh]-section of SYSTEM.INI. It didn't help.

BTW, does it matter which driver to use? I mean Paradise or generic.
Are there any known performance differences?

Any help appreciated.
