First, don't use ``ansi''.  Whether you have or haven't ANSI.SYS
installed on your system, you don't need this parameter UNLESS you
want DJGPP graphics to ONLY use ANSI commands.
Second, try the built-in VESA driver, by setting GO32 like this:

	set GO32=nc 256

If this doesn't work, try to find out what *chipset* does your VGA
use.  You might find it either be looking into the documentation you
got with it, or by simply looking at the largest chip you find on the
SVGA card inside your computer.  I think ELSA WINNER 1000 PRO VL is
the name of the card OEM, but it says nothing about the card except
that it is VESA Local Bus card.  Another thing to try is to look on
the list of drivers known to Windows Setup program (assuming you have
Win 3.x installed) and see what is the name of the SVGA for which
there are drivers for several resolutions: this is usually the name
of the chipset you have.
