I'm running MS-DOS 6.22

When I try to run games like that it's just a jumble of color with stripes going down the screen.

I can however run DOOM in DOS.

So.. what do I need to load up to run? Some kinda Vesa driver I'm assuming?

Ugh, I'm bout to say screw it an throw in an old S3 card.

UAKM dosen't work in win98se either (had to boot to MS-DOS mode but locks up)

-edit, on 2nd thought, the UAKM VESA Test image works in Win98se, but not in DOS, so I'm guessing there's some sort of Windows driver I could copy over and us in DOS (hopefully)

If not, off to S3 Trio64V+ I go

Yeah, I came across that thread swaaye 😀

I don't recall it fixing the problem, I'll troubleshoot some more later on.

I got it working just fine w/ the S3, so I might just save myself the headache and swap vid cards when I need to.
