[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] Drivers for TSENG 4000 boards

ker@cbnewsj.att.com (kenneth.roser) (04/23/91)

I notice that there is a new driver for the Trident 8900 that provides
a larger font when running windows at 1024x768.

Does such a driver exists for controllers using the Tseng 4000 chip?

The Diamond SpeedSTAR board uses the ET4000 chip set, and comes with
Windows 3.0 fonts so text remains 16-point (approx.) in 640x480,
800x600, and 1024x768 modes (16 or 256 colors); icons get a little
smaller as resolution increases (they remain 32x32). I have not attempted
to fiddle with the fonts to make them any larger (they are large enough
for me). This is an EXCELLENT SVGA board, and they have a BBS which
gives great support.
