- Does anybody know anything about the new SpeedStar 24 bit card?
- I am getting a new computer, and will probably end up with a SpeedStar, and
- the cost of the 16 bit HiColor card is the same price as the 24 bit card.
- I assume I will need IBM's patch for the ET4000. How does the SpeedStar
- compare with other ET4000 cards for OS2?
- Is there a need to get the 24 but card?
- Is is completely compatible with the 16 bit card? What problems might I
- have?
- What benefits might I get using the 24 bit card in OS2?
- What drivers are available for OS2?
-
- Did I ask enough questons? If you have anything else to add, about ET4000
- video cards, about the SpeedStar 24, or about video cards in general,
- please respond via EMail.
-
- BTW, would the 24 bit card be any faster (or slower) than the 16 bit card?
-
- Thanx,
- P. Volpe
