Your vesa drivers may not support the modes you're trying to use. Do a web search for "univbe", "universal bios extensions" or "scitech display doctor". Scitech's web site is http://www.scitechsoft.com. These programs make your svga bios more compatible and can actually add more modes. >Alan: What mode are you using? >My graphics GUI uses mode 257, and the mighty.e mouse support >written by Pete. > >Irv Btw, mighty.e is only available from my web site (address below sig). The mighty mouse routines work in svga modes, and allow custom mouse cursors.

Irv, I used mode 261, which I heard (and think I read) was svga mode. Isn't that the "best" mode? --Alan =
