- I have a 1 meg SVGA trident 8900 card.
- i have heard rumors that there are some problems with this card and graphic
- instensive programs. eg Windows 3.1
-
- The reason i give this example is that i have just installed windows
- and my system keeps hanging. I donot think it is the software as my flat
- mate has the same system installed and no problems at all.
-
- I have also noticed some static on the monitor when i run video intensive
- programs like demos and such.
-
- My hardware setup is:-
-
- processor : '486sx
- memory : 4 meg.
- Harddisk : 100 meg ide drive.
- Vga card : 1 meg Trident 8900.
- Vga Monitor : 1024x768x256.
-
- BTW i was running windows with the trident video driver in 600x800x256 fast
- mode.
