How do I do this, the Win3.1 driver had no switches etc or software
to configure the card?
CC:} Did you do a clean installation of Win-95 or install over an existing
CC:} Windows installation? Maybe Win-95 is picking up bits of your old Windows
CC:} driver.
I re-built the system from scratch, but have built it in three
different ways and still had the same problem. Virgin, copy over
Win3.1 and to a seperate directory.
CC:} Do you have a COM4? There are reports of S3 graphics cards interfereing

I don't have COM4, just 1 and 2. 3 & 4 map over 1 & 2 don't they?
Mouse is on COM1 and Modem on COM2
CC:} Did your card come with any DOS utilities to set it up eg. refresh rates,
CC:} VESA drivers or extended resolution enablers. Try either removing or
CC:} adding them (as necessary).
Fraid not, but I am just backing up the system, before trying the
Win3.1 drivers rather that Win95 driver
