Here is my test result of SS24X with new driver 2.03b.

software: PC magazine Winbench 3.1

hardware: 486DX-50 EISA with Award 486 EISA BIOS
          8 MB RAM  212 MB HDD
          SS24X with 1MB DRAM

Winmark:

        640x480 800x600 1024x768 1280x960 1280x1024
16        6.5     6.2      5.8      5.8      5.7
256      10.0     9.0      8.4
32768     1.5     1.5
16 mil.   1.1

  It seems OK now fro Microsoft Word 2.0 & Work but there is still some
problems. Once you reinstall the driver for some mode, you must restart
Windows right away or you might load Windows failed later. Does anyone have
the same experience?
