Hi all! I know that DirectX probably supports accelleration on the cards Microwerx mentioned - I have long since wondered about that - can somebody tell me exactly HOW do they do it? I am interested in 3D accelleration in protected mode DOS programming too, but as far as I can ascertain manufacturers only support DirectX drivers for their cards - Windoze... So how does it work? Do they do outports() or such like to certain ports on the card? Memory DMA blocks like with sound programming? Or what? Fanx - please reply in the group I would like to get lots of opions. Fanx! -- This message courtesy of RylanNet rylan AT intekom DOT co DOT za http://home.intekom.com/rylan/ -- StarWars for ever!.
