Bug form for 3D Studio Vibrant drivers. Please make sure you include the following information in your CompuServe message when reporting problems with 3D Studio video drivers. Thanks. 3D Studio Release____3DS4___(e.g. 3DS4) Vibrant Driver Version_1.0.5.P1 (Oct 7 1994)_(e.g. 1.0.5.P1) Computer System (486, etc.) : 486-66 DX/2 VESA / ISA bus Memory Manager : Microsoft HIMEM/EMM386 from DOS 6.21 Video Board name__Impression (3Mb)____(e.g. Stealth 24) Manufacturer__Matrox______(e.g. Diamond) Chipset_______MGA_________(e.g. S3) Bus type____VESA-VL_______(e.g. VLB) Total DRAM_____0__________(e.g. 0 M) Total VRAM_____3Mb________(e.g. 1 M) BIOS version_2.7a Rev 1.1_(e.g. 2.01) (check for this with MSD.EXE, readout during cold boot, or diagnostic software supplied with video card) Problem – please include information about video resolution: Though the MGA Setup program's Graphic Mode Test performs correctly in the Vibrant configuration screen, pressing escape darkens the screen and only a power down will reset the system. Have spoken w/ Phillip L. Miller at Autodesk who uses the ISA bus version of this card with no trouble. VESA compatible selection (with MGA VESA driver) in Vibrant configuration works fine.
