I need to download a copy of CL GD5426.VGA My computer works fine in DOS but if I go to WINDOWS the screen is all scrambled with overlapping copied of the program. The same thing happened when I tried to re-install both WIN 3.1 or WIN95. I got a message that I needed the above file.

For now, why not go to the Windows directory, run setup, and select SVGA as the display driver? Just a thought. --¤¤¥¤Ö

I tried that suggestion to set the display to SVGA but it still does not work.
Thanks any way.
Any more ideas out there? I will try them all.

I'm using cl-gd5426 but i'm not sure exactly what you need. The particular file your looking for is not on my system. I suppose this must be a setup file but ??? What i can tell you is that i've got 4 different video drivers associated with my video card and a utility called setres to select between them, according to the number of colors i want to use. If this can help you, say so here, include your email, and i'll send those 5 files to you in a zip. I'll check this post in a day or two. Hope this can help you.
