Has anybody got a Windows 3.0 working 640x480x16 on an XT? I've got no results with different VGA-Drivers (except VGAmono) on VEGA VIDEO 7 card as well as COLOR IMAGE BOARD. IBMPS250-driver of Windows 2.10 works in 640x480x8 mode, but all the icons are in b/w! :-( Dr Gerd C Schmerse | natec@infohh.rmi.de | ___ NATEC Institut | ..49 40 88309170 (fax) | /o.o\ Hamburg, W.Germany | ..49 40 88309124 (voice) | -m-"-U-"-m-

It worked also with Hercules (also black & white, but with much more detail). But poor me, when I inserted an EGA card in the XT (for the sake of good resolution & colour), Windows refused to work properly... I've tried to install, reinstall, etc. but nothing worked. Until now I did not succeed in making Windows 3.0 work on my XT + EGA configuration... It shows the Windows Entry Bitmap and then it crashes. I think there may be a stack error or so??? Did you have similar problems, Gerd? -- -------------------------------------------------------------------- | Frits Feldbrugge | Internet: fritsf@idca.tds.philips.nl | | Philips TDS | UUCP: .....!mcvax!philapd!fritsf | --------------------------------------------------------------------
