Hi,
    I have for many years written code with BorlandC 3.1 sing the BGI
Graphics, particularly EGAVGA.BGI, driving resolutions up to 800* 600.

    I have recently moved to a 1024 * 768 version for a project and have
thus moved up to SVGA16.BGI for 16 colours. This works fine on my desktop,
but will not run on my new laptop (which is a dual boot Win 98/Win XP)
machine.

    I get an error 246 (-10) stating that this graphics mode is not
supported. This is a MAJOR problem to me.


    My PC is:
 IBM Thinkpad T30. The graphics card is an
 ATI Radion 7500 Mobility with its own, (not shared) memory.

 I get the error 246. GRAPHICS MODE NOT SUPPORTED.

Has anyone ANY idea as to how I might get around this, is it the question of
getting a different driver for the card??

(Desperate)
Dave Frost
