  16.     Hello all.  Is there any way to get the Trident 800x600x256
  17. color drivers to run DOS programs that use graphics in a window, without
  18. suspending them?  I can get text-based stuff like Manifest, DOS5 Editor,
  19. and Norton Utilities to work fine, but Games like Bard's Tale 3,
  20. Microsoft Flight Simulator, and GIF file viewers are suspended until I 
  21. full-screen them.  They worked fine a window with the default 640x480x16 
  22. drivers, but that is not the case now.  Is there a solution, or will I just
  23. have to wait for Trident to release some better drivers?
