Video Seven Modes and Drivers in Windows 3.0

ID: Q83358


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a


SUMMARY

Video Seven proprietary resolution modes are not supported in virtual machines under Windows version 3.0.

A virtual display device (VDD) specifically for the Video Seven cards is required to provide this functionality. Such a device is not shipped with Windows 3.0, although a Video Seven specific 640 x 480, 256-color display driver (V7VGA.DRV) is supplied.

Instead, Video Seven "pure VGA mode" support is built into the Windows 3.0 VDDVGA (standard VGA VDD) device.


MORE INFORMATION

According to Video Seven technical support, updated Windows 3.0 display drivers and a Video Seven specific VDD are now available. Please contact Video Seven for availability information.

Also, updated Windows 3.0 display drivers for the Video Seven V-RAM, 1024i, and FastWrite video cards can be obtained from the MISCELLANEOUS section of the Bulletin Board System (BBS) maintained by the Video Seven Technical Services.

For additional information, contact Video Seven Technical Support. The products included here are manufactured by vendors independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding these products' performance or reliability.
