Windows 95 does detect and install the drivers for the S3 from its database
on the CD.  Device Manager shows it is working properly with no conflicts.
I ran a utility program that also id'd it and said it had 1024K of video
ram.  ? ? ?  Is there anything on the MB that might restrict it in some way?

Thanks, Edna Sloan

Hi Edna,

Most onboard video that I've worked with is recognized by Windows as only
vga until you install the drivers. There should have been a driver disk with
your motherboard, if not you should be able to download it from HP

Best Wishes,
Rick Burns.
