IN my 386, no$2k6 http://nocash.emubase.de/2k6.htm works very fast I don´t like the 2600, then i don´t test too much games as a rule, divide the atom's mhz in half and you get the performance in celeron mhz... a 1.66ghz atom behaves almost like a 800mhz celeron... I am using VBA on my atom330+ION …

Thanks for reply For sure, i think same, this must be the reason, but i don´t understand how a cheap trident can, and a ET4000AX that i read in every place is a great card, can´t Must be some kind of way to solve this problem... The only solution i know for now, is sell it, and buy another card.... …

It has happened to me also. Maybe it has to do something about the refresh rate supported by the monitor. Try switching to 60Hz while you have the CRT monitor connected, and then try the TFT. How much memory does the ET4000AX has? I don´t know how to swicth to 60hz in msdos or 3.1 I tried scitech …

Is funny, logic say that the ET4000AX is the shit compared with the 8900C, but the trident can do 1024x768 in my TFT, and the 4000 don´t.... Then for now, yes, sadly, the trident still rocks for me I really want to know if is possible to get 1024 in a normal way in the ET4000

Hi, i don´t have any idea what happen with my ET4000AX that can´not do 1024x768x256 on a TFT monitor In a CRT works ok, i think maybe is because this card do in a interlaced mode? My old Trident 8900C works perfect in 1024 on this TFT :sad: I spend some money in this ET4000, just for keep using the …

TheElf@ How do you get good results with a lower number of colours and without error diffusion? I think the only way is to do patterns by hand... from dark brown to orange... http://www.akihabara-online.com/386/Walls/pattern.gif By the way, I made new ones.

By the way, all wallpapers are made in a Toshiba CT50, win3.1, paint shop pro 3 That's not quite easy. You need a simple shaded picture with distinct contrast for it to work well. Not very difficult, but take time, and yes, not all pictures are suitables for 16 colors I really need ideas about …
