- Hi, not sure if this is the right place to ask, if it isn't, please redirect
- me.
-
- Anyway, I'm doing some C programming using Borland TurboC++, in particular,
- I'm playing around with graphics. The PC I'm using has a SVGA card fitted
- (comes up as "Trident TVGA Bios C2.11" on booting), which can apparently do
- upto 800x600x256 colours, however, the best I can get with turbo C routines is
- 640x480x16 colours. How do I go about getting access to the high res modes of
- this card, does it simply require a new BGI file? If so, where can I get one,
- and how should I use it once I have? If not, what then?
-
- Thanks in advance,
- Andy
