Hi, ive bought a S3 Trio 3D/2X (86C368) off of ebay. Will it work with the default win3.11 svga drivers (when you select your video device in the text setup program?. if it doesnt, ive found some drivers for 3.11 off of s3's website. if i load them in setup instead, then will it work.

Is the 20002w31.zip file the one you downloaded?

From here?

That's the one I'd try first.

You might need the genaric s3 vga driver for windows 3.x that supports 256 colors, unfortunately it's no longer available online.

S3vga.zip but I uploaded it for you. http://wh2ioa.bay.livefilestore.com...
