Hello all, can someome tell me if we need display card drivers in DOS? If no, then from where does DOS loads these drivers?? Does this has something to do with BIOS also??? pls hlp.. Thank you

No drivers required as no graphics capability - any monitor will handle pure text - goes back to the days of original BASIC etc. when monitors were only used for displaying text. Drivers only came in with the advent of graphics which require more than just the basic command for individual pixels to be on or off. "I know that I'm mad - I've always been mad..."

Actually most DOS software which is graphically intense like Games use Drivers, but they are coded into the software. DOS does and can produce good graphics and is not limited to text only. Scitechsoft were a leading graphics enhancement software writer but have abandoned DOS but fortunately their software is now FREE. http://www.mwpms.uklinux.net/page2.htm has a link to Scitechsoft software as well as the readme's, though ideally you should be using pure DOS and not WinDOS.

I also remember some of the really high end 3d rendering, and morphing programs,way back when , were in fact dos, not windows, programs..and their graphics quality was top-notch ..(for their day, but look at some of the effects on some 12 to 15 year old movies..they weren't all done on Sun workstations at all).... These programs did, of course, included their own proprietary graphics drivers.. but so did windows 2-3x, which was *also* a dos program....
