Hey Chuck, I won't even bother telling you about the time it takes to initialize the ATI Mach64 because I'm sure you're aware of it. But, do you know that if I load 3D Studio I cannot run Windows without having to power down the computer? The Vibrant driver is doing something to the Mach64 that it hangs the computer when you try to load Windows. I just got brand new drivers from ATI (to fix a problem it had with PC-NFS) but this hasn't changed. Why do you make so many calls to the VESA bios? That's what is taking so long. If I put a trap and ignore all VESA calls, the Vibrant driver go straight up with no delays.
