What model S3 card is it? I may have some old driver
discs about here for S3..
Found that, in fact I think the archive I got contains drivers for a lot of
other OS's as well.
The card emulated is the "S3 Trio32/64" with either 4MB, 8MB, or 12MB (or is
it 16MB?).
Network is easy enough; grab the TCP/IP extensions for
Win3.11 (they used
to be on Microsoft's website, but I don't know if they still are. I ought
to have a copy of them too, somewhere..) and you can use these outside of
Windows too, once set up. This will also allow you to map network drives,
access printers, etc, (assuming you have SMB compatible shares somewhere).
I went digging first thing this morning, and found my copy of WFW3.11, as a
result I've go that installed now, along with the S3 driver and DEC 21041
NIC driver.
I'll go hunting for TCP/IP drivers tonight if I have time. I have a box of
PC/TCP that was sealed when I got it :^) and I've never used it. I'll have
to take a look at it, not sure what OS it supports.
Though I really should spend the time trying to get Win95 as it looks like
that is the OS I need to be running for some DEC software I have.
DOS itself is most interesting for some of my old games :^) Though so far
I've not had any luck getting Warlords 2, the only one I've tried, running.
