- I figured out how to use my diamond speedstar card at 1024x768x256 BUT
- there are 2 problems.
-
- i) Every once in a while when I go to full screen dos windows and
- play around with stuff, I lose v sync and I have to guess my way around
- to a new fll screen dos windows to do the svga, vmode svga sequence.
-
- ii) the screen flickers when there is a gray background or menu bar.
- I have a 60hz CTX non interlaced monitor at 1024x768. is this natural or
- should I be playing around trying to fix it. Please note that it is rock
- solid at 800x600x256.
-
- Finally, when will diamond bring out *REAL* drivers for os/2 so that we
- don't have to spend more time maintaining our systems than using them???
- Until you can help me, I'm stuck at 800x600x256. I should mention that I
- do like 800x600 quite a lot too! it's just that I've spent good money to
- get 1024x256 and I'd like to get wat I pay for.
-
- thank you for your time,
