However the UNIVESA driver effective for this card as well. "Cleared
all video problems right up".
From Mark de Wit <935307de@udcf.gla.ac.uk>: The way to fix the static
problem (at least it works for the 5428 Cirrus Logic chipset), is to
use the Paradise VESA driver on disk 2. Load this first, and the
static goes away. Alternatively, there is a fix on cirrus' ftp site:
ftp.cirrus.com. The problem is caused by a faulty BIOS. The cirrus
fix is a BIOS replacement TSR. Warning: it's 30KB big!!!!!
I just tested the new line of Tseng Labs W32 accelerator cards with
T7G. I bought the Hercules Dynamite Pro VLB, and it scores MAJOR
speed in DOS! It's super fast in Windows too! It doesn't need any
VESA TSR programs, and it's also ET4000 compatible. It's a little
pricey right now, but hopefully it will become more affordable.
TROUBLE-SHOOTING TIPS:
----------------------
First of all, if you have trouble, get the 1.24 patch on the bbs or
via ftp on ftp.cdrom.com. In fact, even if you *aren't* having
trouble, get it. It's very good. Even a perfect setup could get a
"Sound Buffer Failure" once in a blue moon. Make sure you do a "V ?"
to see if you already have this version.
1) Check your VESA driver. It is probably the cause. If the one on
CD Disc 2 of T7G doesn't work for you, get the most up to date one
from your video card manufacturer. If you have the "Fred and Ethel"
video card, and you can't find their BBS, try getting the latest copy
