none of this work on 286

The Trident series is unaccelerated, so there is no need for Trident specific logic in the driver. The TVGA8900D is faster than the C, because they improved the pipelining of CPU writes to video memory, not because of extra capabilities offered to a Windows driver. Trident ships a BIOS extension tool called "LOCKFIFO" which can be used to configure the pipelining ("FIFO") on the TVGA8900D, which is a BIOS extension, and thus will be effective with nearly any Windows 3.1 driver, because drivers of that age use the BIOS to configure the video mode.

So, did you already try Microsofts generic "SVGA 640 x 480 256 colors" driver? If that driver works, I don't see what a TVGA8900D driver can improve over the generic one.

Hi, no, generic svga driver dont work with 8900D

Like i said the only way i can get 256 colors is with a old win3.0 driver, but is not working fine, slow with color problems

Im with the hope someone have a old woking driver version, because i already download and tested every?one i found in internet

Patched svga and vesa ones need 386, i tested too

I will check LOCKFIFO tonight thanks

There's a bunch of 286-compatible drivers attached in this post - Re: Should a Diamond Speedstar Pro (CL-GD5426) work in Win3.1 in 286 real-mode?

https://archive.org/download/trident-tvga-890 … er-disk-trident - this one is later, the TRW one readme says that some require 386, this one doesn't mention
