The adapter came with drivers for Windows/286, OS/2 1.2, and DOS. Has a driver been written for Windows 3.0 yet? I realize that IBM really dosen't have any motivation to write it, since IBM is pushing OS/2, but I'd really like to see Windows 3.0 in 1600x1200 resolution on a 19" display. If you can give me any information, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks! Chris

You will end up with 2 diskettes. One will have OS/2 code, the other Windows V3 and V2. -- Bill rubin@watson.ibm.com
