I am looking for a GIF viewer which will provide extended mode capabilities 
for the Diamond SpeedSTAR VGA card with 1 Meg memory.  I have had no luck
using several different GIF viewers, including one which supported various
drivers (ATI, Paradise, Orchid), for viewing high resolution (800X600 or 
higher) GIF files with 256 colors.  I have had success displaying the same
high resolution files with 256 colors on other PC's using other VGA cards
and I have had no problems running WINDOWS with 8000X600X256 colors using 
the Diamond SpeedSTAR VGA card so I am sure the problem is that the GIF 
viewers I'm using do not support the Diamond SpeedSTAR VGA card.

If you know of any GIF viewers that will work with this video card running
extended modes please reply... Thanks in advance.
