[comp.windows.ms] GENOA Drivers for 256 colors!

**** Attention fellow GENOA 6400 graphics card owners.
 
  As you might or might not know, Genoa has released the beta versions of
there Windows 3.0 drivers.  The drivers seem to work fine but they only
have 16 colors!!!!
 
  Last month they said they will have 256 color drivers for windows.  Now
they won't!  Two separate techs said they have no plans for 800x600x256
drivers.  If the new windows didn't require 16 colors they proably would
of come out with 8 color drivers.
 
  If you don't like this call them up and tell them you want the 256 drives
for 640x480 and 800x600!

  I bought the Genoa 6400 just for windows and if they don't come out with
the 800x600x256 driver I'm going to buy the Orchid Pro designer II.  I heard
It's fast!  If anyone out there is using that board please tell me if it's
worth getting.  I heard they have all the drivers for windows and even fonts.
