We're having a problem trying to get Orchid Fahrenheit 1280 + VLB card working
with 3D Studio rel. 2. We downloaded the VESA driver REV1.EXE from ORCHID
bulletin board and followed their instructions for installing 3D Studio 2.0.
The ORCHID install inserts a SET command in our AUTOEXEC:
SET DSPADI=C:\ORCHID\RCFADI42.EXP
3D Studio never gives us a chance to reset the resolution in the configuration
and fails when we try to display images.
Hi Mondo's. I left a message for you in the 3D Studio section. You need to re
write your environment to SET RCPADI=… . It also sounds like you got an ACAD
driver, not a 3D Studio driver (the one I used was RCPFADI42.EXP).
Good luck,

I agree, it does sound like you are using an ACAD driver, and it might not
work. If it will work with 3DS, it needs to be set either as an RCPADI or
RDPADI driver.
To re-configure an ADI driver for 3ds, the easiest way is to delete the
3DADI.CFG file that the ADI driver creates, this will force a reconfiguration.
