Anyway here's the question: I recently : upgaded my Trident 8900 to an Orchid Kelvin 64. While I'm very pleased : with the card, I'm a little ticked that I still can't play Michael Jordan's : In Flight in high resolution mode, especially since I have a fast enough : card to do it! Does anyone out there have a Cirrus Logic or VESA driver : for this game. I can't believe that a game that came out _after_ : Links386 Pro would not just use VESA rather than writing drivers for many : (actually just a few) specific chipsets. Try using some of the other drivers, like the STB ones. I think that the STB cards actually use a Cirrus Logic chip. I've got an ET4000 clone, and I thought I wouldn't be able to get Jordan working. So I tried the Diamond Speedstar driver and it worked fine (the Diamond Speedstar has an ET4000 - but they don't tell you that!). Peter
