Hello everyone,

I've got a copy of an old VGA driver diskette, which was part of my father's diskette collection.

It has similar content to Elianda's fine driver set found at Vogonsdrivers:
http://vogonsdrivers.com/getfile.php?fileid=87&menustate=0

However, the ZIP files on my father's diskette seem to be newer, dated 1992 rather than 1990/1991.
But that's not so important, maybe, since the files inside them have same date sometimes.
There are also other differences. The 8514/A emulator is missing on my father's diskette.

On the other hand, the supplied SVADI driver is more recent and has additional 1280x1024 and 1024x768 resolutions (render/display)
There's also a newer VBE TSR, which supports both OTI-067 and OTI-077.
(Not so important, since there were big VBE driver collections being published on shareware CDs, see example).

Here's what the readme says :

Driver version 2.2 requires the BIOS version to be 1.05 or higher. Driver diskettes contain the following driver files : […]

Hm. What do you think ? Maybe the content is useful to anyone ?
Personally, I think it might. But Elianda's version is more important, because it is more complete.
That 8514/A program is missing in my dump of the diskette, most notably.
Last but not least, this version requires a more recent VGA BIOS (-v1.05-) to be installed on the cards, maybe.

Best regards,

Thank you so much, it´s the first real driver for OTI-077 rest of them are for 067/077 and they don´t have 32K colours not supported for 067 chipset, really difficult to find.
Thanks.

Personally, I think it might. But Elianda's version is more important, because it is more complete.
That 8514/A program is missing in my dump of the diskette, most notably.
Last but not least, this version requires a more recent VGA BIOS (-v1.05-) to be installed on the cards, maybe.

Best regards,

Thank you so much, it´s the first real driver for OTI-077 rest of them are for 067/077 and they don´t have 32K colours not supported for 067 chipset, really difficult to find.
Thanks.

My father and me are glad that we could help.
