Hello Folks!
Getting back to the original topic . . .
After working extensively with the bearwindows' video driver script in LiveXP, I have met with failure in resolving this issue.
For the record, Thuun's 53b9b kitted release works well with the included drivers on an older eMachines which I easily hijacked with my LiveXP Cruzer stick -- I know that this color depth problem doesn't affect everyone's system out there. But, when it does strike, the display is truly miserable.
So, I did the following to a test build of Thuun's release on my unfortunate machine:
After downloading bearwindows' “Universal Video Driver” script content via the link on psc's post (above), I saved it as “UVDriver.script” to ...Archive/LiveXP/Drivers on my extracted WinBuilder dir. To allow WinBuilder to find this new script, I then placed a .link file with the following content:
[main]
link=%BaseDir%\Archive\LiveXP\Drivers\UVDriver.script
Selected=True
on the ...Projects/LiveXP/Drivers dir as “UVDriver.link”.
The main project interface showed the new driver as being present and in good order.
I then proceeded to build an otherwise “stock” project with the following modifications:
Build 1: All standard, with the addition of the above “UVDriver.script”.
Build 2: “QemuVGA.script” omitted from the build.
Build 3: “VmwareVGA.script” omitted from the build.
Build 4: Both “VmwareVGA.script” and “QemuVGA.script” omitted from the build.
In every case the video remained at the same low-res level as before:
It made no difference.Please note that in all of the forgoing instances “UVDriver.script” was present in the completed build.
Also for the record, I'm working with a newer
THOROUGHLY CLEAN Dell somethingorother with 256mB of RAM which (obviously) supports the necessary USB boot protocols.
Any help???
Thanks!
