I have the ATI GRAPHICS ULTRA PRO EISA version. I must admit it has |
|
received bad press but that was due to the faulty drivers it had. Now the |
|
drivers that are available for the EISA version are the same ones as the ISA |
|
and Local Bus (v1.5 Build 59). Some people complained about problems they |
|
had with the Build 59 drivers, fortunately I couldn't duplicate them on my |
|
machine, but I did have one problem with Harvard Graphics that nobody else |
|
seemed to have. |

I wouldn't recommed the ATI for 24bit colour at 800x600, at this resolution |
|
the display will be interlaced. But at 16bit it isn't, I thought it was my |
|
monitor but it isn't, its the card (that is the only time you will get |
|
interlaced). If I come up with cards more suited for your needs I'll let |
|
you know. |
