VESA screen modes
VESA screen modes
I cant seem to get true color VESA modes to work on my computer(256 color modes do work)! The strange thing is though is that I got it 2 years ago. Does anybody know why?

If you have changed computer that is probably the reason..
Besides, the true VESA modes only support 8bit colors (256 colors) many cards added support for more colors though, which kind of started breaking the VESA standard..
Nowadays very few cards even bother implementing vesa at all.. you'd be lucky to get even 640x480x8bit..

For QB, do the jpeg loader in my site work?

Well, my one computer(the one that has a gfx card) lists ten bazilloin different modes whereas the other computer lists 3 which dont work anyway. I then tried some of the 24 bit modes(not using your program) which returned the same results. Your program worked just fine, need not worry! Its just that I need a new gfx card for my computer.
