Interestingly still no difference between the two BIOS versions. Scitech Display Doctor (6.53 DOS version) reports 7 modes before and 7 after, but after running the Speedstar24X's own VESA TSR I get 3 new 15 bit modes (without the tsr 8 bit modes are the highest available). These new modes work well …

I have made a few tests. Motherboard: GA-586ATS, CPU: P1 133MHz, RAM: 16M EDO; Video card: Diamond Speedstar 24X with WDC chipset and 1Mbyte video memory, 0WS jumper installed, 16 bit BIOS jumper installed. Test programs: the DOSBENCH collection and VIDSPEED. Long story short: I did not find any …

There were days when everybody carried a spare hdd in a mobile rack drawer in his backpack for moving data. When I put my drive into the bay of my friend's computer, my drive (one primary partition) would be D: and his logical partitions got shifted (the same problem as yours). One solution/trick …
