Re: Windows 3.1/3.11 Drivers for the following Graphic Cards...?

Nice to see that my "Chips & Tech C&T C&T 82c450" is supported within UNIVBE67.
I read the advice to use the win30 driver for different chips quadtel etc. but all I can see is 640x480 with 16colors.
So currently I do not have a win30 capable driver for my CT450 VideoCard.

There's also a Chips F82C451 C chip, as used on the OCTEC EVGA 16..

Maybe there are 3.x compatible drivers onlne, that also work with the 450.

Edit: There's this one, for example. Can't test it, however, since I lack that VGA card.

My Houdini-Card has the C&T450 on it. (PowerMacintosh 6100/66)
The drivers work fine for Win3.1 and the vesa-driver does his job well for deluxepaint and the demoscene stuff that requires it (sun/wild slideshow pulse)
But I can't get Win30 to work with 256colors. It's a very ancient (and therefore relatively slow) gfx-chip. But it's pretty compatible.
It can be switched to cga/ega/mda
