*******************************************************************
ISVGA256.BGI -- A Super VGA BGI driver for Turbo C and Pascal
that integrates support for multiple SVGA chipsets
into one driver.
-- Due to a limitation in both TC and TP you can't
use setgraphmode() to set a mode higher than 0ah
without patching the compilers. A patch is supplied
in this archive that, using Borland's PATCH.COM,
will increase this limit to 40 modes.
To install the patch just run the PATGRPTP.BAT file.
Make sure Patch.com is in your search path.
** (This is only a problem if you want to set a graphics
mode higher than the one autodetect returned to you)
-- Now supports VESA (video electronic standards
association) compatible cards. You can either use a
VESA compatable BIOS or load a VESA TSR (usually
available from you card vendor).
The driver will attempt to autodetect a vendor specific
mode first, then if none are found it will check for
VESA support. If thats not found, it will check to see
if vga mode 13h 320x200 by 256 is supported.
To order send: $45.00 to:
Thomas Design
P.O. Box 586
Stillwater Oklahoma
74076
Cards supported: Video 7, Paradise, ATI, Tecmar, Orchid, Genoa,
Compaq VGA, HP VGA, STB, and VESA.
Others: If your VGA card uses the SVGA chipset from either:
Paradise, Tseng Labs, Chips 'n Tech, Trident, or
video 7 your card will probably workwith these drivers.
