Hi everyone,

I've stumbled upon another thread where someone tried to run GTA1 with a 5500 and got the same problem I first experienced when trying out the driver swap 4 years ago. The game runs 100% fine in 640x480x16 and 800x600x16, it's just the initial default resolution that's at fault.

This thread touches upon issues from other threads:
- GTA 3DFX mode on Voodoo 3 2000 not working
- GTA DOS with Voodoo 5500 problems [Resolved]

For what it's worth, I've managed to start Quake (exactly this port: https://bitbucket.org/maraakate/qdos) in this exact resolution without issue with the 5500 set in full gear, which means it's not an issue of the 5500 being unable to display this resolution, or "not being made for this game".

My gut feeling tells me it's an issue with the OVL driver - is it or is it not?
Can this issue be fixed knowing full well ahead that there exists another game that can do this?
