For those old games an Oak or Trident should be just fine. The ET4000 is just over kill.

Use to run them on my first 286/16 system using an Oak 256k 8-bit vga video card without any bother what so ever.

They also run well on my Zenith 286/12.That has 256k vga built in.

There's a glitch in the matrix.

Apparently 32-bit is dead and nobody likes P4s.
Of course, as always, I'm open to correction...😉

I choose ET4000 because the DiamondSpeedstarVGA has a crystal clear vga-output on my tft.
Mostly other cards do not support 1024x768@256colors, because they don't have or support 1MB Vram.
