- Grumbl... I still have problems getting WINOS/2 to do 800x600 or
- even better 1024x768.
-
- First I tried using my official Tseng ET4000 Windows (3.0) driver. The
- thing worked, but only partially :-( since all bitmaps shrunk but all
- drawings didn't. So I got BIG windows with BIG scrolling bars etc. and
- small icons and bitmaps. Unfortunately the characters were BIG as
- well...
-
- Then I tried to install the normal Orchid Windows drivers but these will
- not install on WINOS/2 since they complain about not being able to
- modify the WIN.INI (no wonder...).
-
- So... can anyone provide me with a working replacement for VGA.DRV so I
- can use Windows with 800x600 (or better, with 1024x768 since that's my
- OS/2 desktop)? I can FTP and uudecode/decompress.
-
- Thanks,
-
