- I recently got one too -- don't know the exact number because it's in
- the shop (nothing to do with the card) -- but I was under the impression
- that it didn't need a VESA driver because all the VESA programming was
- implemented in on-board ROM. Kind of nice, actually, that it's not
- taking up high memory...
-
- I know I have run Vistapro in its VESA modes (800x600x256 and 1024x768x256)
- without having loaded any other drivers.
-
- Anybody got any information to the contrary?
