[comp.windows.ms] SV800 800 X 600 VGA driver

poffen@sj.ate.slb.com (Russ Poffenberger) (06/14/90)

Well I installed it and it works fine with my V7 Fastwrite VGA. Here is what I
did.

1.) Unpacked the archive and copied sv800.drv to my windows directory.

2.) Edited my system.ini file so the disply.drv variable in the boot section
was set to sv800.drv. eg 'display.drv = sv800.drv

3.) Edited mywin.ini file so that I created a display section, with the line
Mode800x600x4 = 22. eg

[display]
Mode800x600x4 = 22

(use 88 for paradise)

Everything works fine, even 386enh mode.
