I display true-color with the Viper and those drivers, Mike, however I must say that the set-up was a bit of a bear. You've got to pay *very* close attention to ALL the set-up related issues in ALL of the manuals. Make sure your VPRmode.exe is configured correctly for your monitor, and all environment variables are properly set in your 3DS startup batch file, or whatever you use. When everything is set up correctly, delete the 3dadi.cfg file from your 3DS directory, and start 3DS. You should now be able to choose the resolution and color you need. A little advice: If you are using QEMM (or some other memory manager), be sure to exclude the A000-C7FF area to head off any memory conflict problems. Below are the batch file lines I use before starting 3DS: C:\VIPER\CHKPATH C:\VIPER IF ERRORLEVEL 3 PATH C:\VIPER;%PATH% SET VIPERPATH=C:\VIPER SET DLDCFG=c:\viperdld SET RCPADI=c:\viperdld\RCTURBOD.EXP Make sure you install ALL the stuff from the disks in the directories they specify, and follow the TurboDLD driver instructions thoroughly, particularly chapter 9. Hope this helps… -Alan Iglesias
