UNCLEAR ON THE CONCEPT...

)From: Jeff Cohen <[e-mail]>
)Subject:      Super VGA
)To: Multiple recipients of list WIN3-L <[e-mail]>
)
)I have to start out by saying that I am a novice at all of this, but I
)would like some information on using the Super VGA driver with Win3.1
)I have a DFI computer (Diamond Flower Inc. -- a clone from Taiwan)
)with a VG-5500 16-bit Super-VGA Board (at least that's what it says on
)the book that came with it. (the computer is a 486-33 with 8mg of
)RAM).  Originally, I set Win3.1 up using the VGA driver, but I thought
)I'd try the SVGA driver.  I changed the set up and it worked OK, but
)when Win3.1 came up, everything was much smaller on the screen.  It
)was a lot sharper, but much smaller.  I didn't like it, so I went back
)to the VGA driver.  Is this the way it is supposed to be?  Is there
)any way to increase the size of things in SVGA?  Am I doing something
)wrong?  Is there another driver I should be using?  Or should I just
)stay with the VGA driver?
