OSDev.org

I need that for the developement of most of my os.. as I develop it in borland C++ in dos. Awsome compiller with all the helpp I need... and I need to simulate teh video driver in true colour...(16 or 24 bits... or even 32)

also I would need it to be free.. the http://www.ryledesign.com/ one is good but it costs a shitload of money which I wouldnt pay as Im only using this for testing.. developing and will tresh it in the end...

but if u have the ryle one and u dont mind giving me a copy

damn, they charge like 200 for tose.. its 150 I think around there...

so if u have a copy and are willing to help me, let me know

There is none for free, I use to want what you are looking for.

But you mean you NEED the SLOWEST kind of driver that could ever be on the face of the earth for all time?

there is a free 800x600x256 one, but it's copyrighted

I dont care if its slow cuz I only use it for testing and development. And actually I found one that for some reason doesnt want to work in windows 2000(the sync screws up) but works in win98.. Ive got both on my 2 hdds so Im find...

the problem is that high colour driver works wonders, but the true colour makes up a screwd up image with WRONG pixels moved in the wrong place and pixels that are not square

so I guess Ill work with the 64k of colours... its good for me... buc I cant figgure out how to set the colours... I tryed all kinds of hex values but there is no output.. but the sample/demo exe binary does work fine
and I could get 2 lines to output using a certain driver I thnk high colour 640 480 with 0x1111 and 2 blue lines came up..

still need to mess with it a bit

IT USES VESA and its actually fast,.... it doesnt use the BGI standard... was written by a guy... and works well its got protected mode version too...(only useable with pascal 7.0 thats 32 bit...)
