...only because fractint never tried to use your graphics card as anything other than a dumb frame buffer.
Which was all it needed to be under DOS. I used to use an IBM PS/2 at work long ago. I don't know what graphics device it had inside, but Fractint could run it at 1600x1200x256 and a refresh rate of 110Hz. Far more than Windows could get out of the same hardware! -- David gnome@hawaii.rr.com authenticity, honesty, community
