1. my VESA Graphics
Hello all,
I recently down-graded from WIN 2K to WIN 98.
And guess what... my VESA Graphics works again.
I can now use NEIL again and even Mic's JAROD library
works better, I can use DOS example programs and
everything. I just thought I'd send out a warning
to any DOS graphics programers that might be
interested in Windows 2000. It seems it was not my
video card's fault at all but WIN 2K. And a side
to Pete E, I am no longer so impatient for you to
get Neil2 finished.
I am glad to be able to program in DOS again. :)
later,
Lewis Townsend

Doesn't Win2K allow for DOS-mode like Win9x?

It compiled. The first screen came up. Ship it.

Nope, Win2K supports a DOS console window and you can do full screen, but
you cannot boot into DOS like you can with Win9x. Same goes for WindowsME
(cannot boot into DOS)...
