Anyone have an Internet or Compuserve address for the : company which wrote Elfish? Or anyone know if they plan to include S3 : capability in an upcoming revision? : --Golden Golden, the reason El-Fish doesn't work in Hi-Res is not because you have an S3, but because your VESA BIOS extension does not support VESA mode 100h, which is a 640x400 256 color mode. You might contact Orchid and see if they have a driver that will support all VESA modes your card is capable of using. -Chris : -- : Golden Richard III OSU Dept. of Computer and Information Sciences : gric...@cis.ohio-state.edu (614) 292-0056
