- It took a little work, but I am running WINOS2 in SVGA seamless mode on the
- new ET4000 drivers. This is on a Diamond SpeedStar at 1024x800x256. Its a
- little bit slow but quite workable.
-
- The problem I had involved the system (the CSD presumably) updating my
- config.sys file. It put a driver (vwin.sys, I think) in the file before
- the drivers that this file depend on had been installed.
