Hi i have a serious problem and i need professional help.

I have a videocard with a Nvidia Geforce 2mx chipset. But in windows 3.11 im not be able to set the colorsettings higher then 16 colors. if i try a 256color mode. I get really weird things on my screen. I think i need a special driver. Some friends tells me that there are no win3.x drivers for AGP cards. But The riva TNT is also a AGP card and it has win3.x drivers. I also tried to use this drivers for my card but it doesnt work. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME, I LOST ALL MY HOPE (ive been searching for months after this drivers without succes) :-(

You do not mention whether or not you tried a generic driver. If not, you can get the Microsoft generic svga driver from my page, drivers section. If it doesn't work, driverguide.com is a good source.

Good luck!
