[comp.windows.ms] TSENG 800x600 problem

dick@prisma.cv.ruu.nl (Dick Bakker) (10/13/90)

When trying to install windows 3.0 with an Optima Mega 
graphics card (VGA) with Tseng ET4000 chip set the following
problem occured:

I have the drivers from cica.cica.indiana for the ET4000
and tried to install windows 3.0  in 800x600x256
When I was trying to setup 3.0 it seemed to work well
with more colours than the standard 16 that I'm familiar
with.
However when rebooting windows it starts up well in 800x600
resolution but there appear to be only 16 colours!
I used the color-setup application under windows to check
whether windows was using 256 colours, but there was the
same amount of pixel-dithering as before in 16 colours.

Are these drivers wrong? or do I need another program to
check whether I really do use more colours than 16?

Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance,
