#vibrant compaq advanced
7 messages in this thread
is there a vibrant update driver for compaq advanced VGA in a compaq 486C
notebook to use with 3ds3. I just want 640 * 480 256 colors on this compaq. on
animator Pro this driver is call compaq sunburst. I don't find equivalnce on
3ds3
thank a lot
The 1.0.1 inline driver update (in the download area… look for VIB3DS.ZIP)
should have compaq support for some of the modes listed as Compaq QVision. If
it doesn't work for you, please send me e-mail and I'll try to get information
to our TQM guys about getting us the board.
We are working on getting the latest Compaq QVision stuff in house, but it is
taking a while.
The Advanced VGA was renamed QVision in our Cardlist, but if the QVision modes
don't work, we might have to add it back in…

thanks,
i try it. the compaq advanced vga AVGA wich normaly is in 256 colors in 640*480
is in vibrant in 16 colors and the Qvision is not regonize by the avga of the
portable compaq 486C. let me know if you have more information thanks.
So none of the Compaq QVision modes worked?
Can you send me a list of the modes that your card should have (maybe in docs
somewhere).

Hi Chuck –
What's the 1.0.1.P6 option VGA-AG1.EXE (I'm "remembering" from yesterday when I
saw it) when I choose Compaq?

This is for the Compaq AG-1024. The Compaq AG-1024 used it's own version of
TIGA 1.1, so you can use the VIB-AG1.EXE support program (I sent it to David
Ang, but I don't know where it is for the public) to run the Compaq with their
system, which is fairly complicated to configure. You can also get a version
of TIGA for the Compaq AG-1024 and use the TIGA settings (you'll need the
VGxxxxxx.RLM which is on the disk with 3D Studio.
If you can't get a hold of the support files, let me know and I'll u/l them.

Chuck,
Thanks for the info on the extra file – I'll check with David Ang and post it
on CompuServe.
