Hi all,
   I've got a CAD machine that I've recently installed OS/2 on & I'm
trying to source some drivers that will allow OS/2 to fully utilise the
graphics card that it has. The machine involved is a DECpc 433T with an
Intelligent graphics card (dec p/n PCXAG-AD). The only drivers that came
with the system came on disks date stamped 1991 so the drivers that were
on it were horribly out of date (& were an unmitigated disaster to put it
mildly :) ) However I noted that the driver software was written by a
group called Appian. Does anyone have any info as to any possible ftp
sites or actually have these drivers on/with them. At the moment I'm being
forced to use the VGA emulation mode & man it is a pain when I'm using
AutoCAD to be limited in colours & resolution.
   Any advice, help suggestions greatly appreciated because if this
situation isn't resolved I'll have to go back to DOS ( :( )

Thanks in advance,

Stuart Johnsen
