I recently added a HiColor DAC to my 1Mb Speedstar+.  Seems to work
fine, except in one case:

If I run Windows 3.1 in 800x600x32K mode, the card appears to drive
the display at about 31 KHz, and INTERLACED.  It should (and is
configured via VMODE) be driving it at around 48 KHz, NON-interlaced.

The pecular thing is that this happens only in this one mode.

800x600x256 is fine (NI), as is 1024x768x256, as is 640x480x32K.  It's
only the 800x600x32K that's flickering.

I've got what Diamond says are the latest drivers, dated 3/1/92.  They
seem stumped by these symptoms.  Do they sound familiar to anyone?
