[comp.windows.ms] video driver for Northgate386

wct1@unix.cis.pitt.edu (William C Tom) (08/23/90)

I have a (new) Northgate 386 slimline, which has its own proprietory
video controller installed on the motherboard.  The bios is
"Poach 51" 16-bit vga with 256 dram.  I use a NEC 2A Multisync.
Near as I can figure out, the present driver is supporting 640*480*16,
 but both the monitor and the video controller should handle
800*600*16 with the proper driver.  What I am looking for is a
driver which will run under Windows 3.0.  Is ther such a creature
around?  If not, is the Northgate video controller similar enough to
a "brand-name" card which does have this driver?  Or, is there a 
generic 800*600*16 Windows 3 driver available?

Thanks for any input.
