OKay, ignorant me didn't pay attention to the postings about the Trident drivers for Windows 3.0. Now I just bought some more memory and plunked the $50 for the upgrade and am stuck with std vga drivers. I have a Platinum VGA card with Trident chipset, 512k and 1024x768x16, 640,480,256, etc. How can I get the drivers for Windows 3.0? Please E-mail the responses. Thanks. -- Dennis Lou Disclaimer: I don't use lame disks. dlou@dino.ucsd.edu "But Yossarian, what if everyone thought that way?" [backbone]!ucsd!dino!dlou "Then I'd be crazy to think any other way!"

hmmm, I included a bogus newsgroup in the list and it returned my article.... I am not sure whether the other groups made it, so I'll repost.,.. ------------ A couple weeks ago, I posted a request for the Trident drivers for MS-Windows 3.0. Too many responded for me to get back to all of you, so here's the post. Only the last two are interesting...

I'll greatly appreciate any information you received from the net. supoj From hp-sdd!uunet.UU.NET!p4tustin!carl@ucsd.edu Tue Jul 31 13:37:43 1990 In article <12057@sdcc6.ucsd.edu> you write: > >OKay, ignorant me didn't pay attention to the postings about the >Trident drivers for Windows 3.0.

Thanks. Dennis, I'm new to the net and didn't see the previous postings. If you get an answer please forward the particulars to me so I can get those drivers. Thanks, Carl From metaware!metaware!johnv@uunet.UU.NET Tue Jul 31 14:36:10 1990 Perhaps you could bounce me a copy o whatever you get.

Thanks. I think I saw those on Cica.cica.indiana.edu -Ted Oh yeah, in the pub/pc/win3 directory From KTK-VK@FINOU.BITNET Sun Jul 29 07:30:28 1990 You may have heard that the Trident policy as to the distribution method of their new drivers is somewhat unclear. They wrote to me in June that the drivers should be ready by the end of June (obviously they weren't) and that owners of non-Trident manufactured cards with Trident chip sets should pay 30 dollars for the upgrade. I have seen more recent rumours that anyone who received the new drivers would be allowed to distribute them via FTP sites. Anyway, it looks very obvious to me that the drivers are not ready yet anyway. If you have any more recent information, I would be interested to know and if you actually manage to get the drivers... From pasanen@fuug.fi Mon Jul 30 02:54:44 1990 I'm looking for those drivers too, so would you please forward the information how to get them to me. (ftp address is enough).
