The S3 Trio64V+


I have a Hercules Terminator 64/V video card with the S3 Trio64V+ chip. Like many people, I have had many problems using this with DOS VESA 2.0 games under WIN 95.

The Hercules drivers also gave me problems - garbled characters in a WIN 95 DOS full screen window.

The card works great now! Here's what I did....

  1. Rather than the Hercules drivers,I am using the updated generic S3 Trio 64V+ drivers available at the S3 support page
  2. Sci Tech Display Doctor didn't work all that well, and it's not free, so I'm using S3VBE20 for DOS VESA modes. This is from Dietmar Meschede.
  3. Finally, to get WARCRAFT2 working in WIN95, I'm using the S3FIX.EXE from Chris Oicles
