- These drivers work on my PVGA1A paradise card, and are much faster than
- the Win 3.0 drivers. However, the 640x480x256 driver exhibits weird
- scrolling problems. Characters and graphics get broken up when the
- screen scrolls them upward (as in a list box of file names).
- The 800x600x256 driver doesn't work, of course, on this old card.
