- I downloaded the file tri32new.exe from hobbes, and the README has a clear
- reference to the seamless/fullscreen winos2 drivers with passing a parameter
- in the system.ini file saying which chipset you have... i.e., Trident, ET4000,
- ATI, etc. This indicated to me that the winos2 drivers shipped with it will
- work with my ATI board (and I THINK I have it installed correctly, and they
- work).
-
- My question is, does this package contain ATI drivers for the desktop (or
- more accurately, since the package only contains one set of drivers, will
- these drivers also work with ATI boards?) I don't see how this is possible,
- but then again, they seem to have accomplished this with the winos2 drivers -
- it seems that one driver works with a multitude of boards. How can this be?
- (again, I have to double-check because it seemed too easy, but I think that
- my winos2 setup is now running off of the 1024x768x256 drivers from the driver
- pack).
