I am wondering what's going on. I have a GTX 670, and a 1920x1080 monitor, and
I am trying text modes by setting both
screen=0x12
(0..0x1f since there are 32 modes the card says) in config.sys and
it was something like
mode con: cols=132 lines=14
mode con: cols=132 lines=25
mode con: cols=132 lines=50
this should have worked. (I would hope there is a 132x50 of course, but this
didn't exist with the hercules cards, so I can only hope at this point...)
by the way, http://help.fdos.org/doc/mode/mode.txt is a 404 error, and the
documentation (maybe just paste from mode output?) is incomplete.
is there some way I can get an update to mode that can do this? if it already
does, then maybe it's my video card BIOS(?).
none of the screen= modes does 132 columns. I do not know what modes vesa 3.0
supports. I don't even know what VESA standards to look at regarding this.
help and updates appreciated, thanks.
