Speaking of nice vs. less complete VESA BIOS ROM's, I've known Intel for not having a full set of VESA modes since their first integrated graphics adaptors (not sure if 810/815, but 845 and afterwards certainly) - namely, 16-color indexed VESA graphics modes were missing (anything with 4 bits per pixel), which prevented some old and odd CAD apps from working... and I recall some apps resulting in a white screen even in modes that theoretically should've worked...
And, Windows 98 have specific severe quirks which cause them a problem to install and run on 512+ MB of RAM. My friend Rayer has described many details on his website, only the page is in Czech: http://rayer.g6.cz/os/os.htm#WIN98-512MB Try google translator if interested :-) Frank _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
