Hi to everyone
As this is my first post on this forum i would like to say a few things:
• I have always supported the reactos project, right from when i downloaded it for the first time at version 0.2.0
• I am having troubles with my video card under ros, it only has 16 colors in ros. it is a intel 82810E onboard
• I can help the project by writing documentaion and to a lesser extent, graphics. I also download and test from time to time.
• I also would like to wish all the developers the best of luck.
• Also i like this new forum better

Re: Hi to everyone
This onboard video seems to be generally incompatible with ros. You can read it here : http://www.reactsoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=85whitehornmatt wrote:• I am having troubles with my video card under ros, it only has 16 colors in ros. it is a intel 82810E onboard
Hi
it is not only reactos that have problem with Intel 82810
the log I found on internet from linux xfree 4.x
it seasms that chip only report 1MB memmory to the vbe interface.
it is not then posible get 16M Color for this card. if it does not exists
some option in the bios to change 1MB to least 2MB or more.
it should work with 16Bits color mode with 640x480
reslution | memmory need
640x480x32 | 1.18MB (16M Color 32Bits)
640x480x16 | 0.6MB (65536 Color 16bits)
I do not have this chip. so please try change it 640x480x16 se if it works

I think I trried
@GreatLord
I'm the 1 in the original post, I thought I tried in all settings but can't be sure. I will go test it now, although I finally got my main pc running so I'll have to dig the HP out of the closet. I will post the results back shortly.

vesa & vga only options
OK, I started the install and realized that you only have the option of using either vesa or vga (no resolution settings available).
So how do I set the resolution in the installer?
I do have mingw etc set up.

Hi
you need to set up mingw and compile new register or hole reactos
in the file reactos/bootdata/hiveinst.inf
change
Profiles\Current\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VBE\Device0","DefaultSettings.XResolution",0x00010001,800
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\Current\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VBE\Device0","DefaultSettings.YResolution",0x00010001,600
to
Profiles\Current\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VBE\Device0","DefaultSettings.XResolution",0x00010001,640
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\Current\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VBE\Device0","DefaultSettings.YResolution",0x00010001,480
and check this if it got same value. if it from cvs it will have this value defualt.
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\Current\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VBE\Device0","DefaultSettings.BitsPerPel",0x00010001,16
Please let me know if this works.
if 16bits does not work with the vbe try change 16 to 8 like this
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\Current\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VBE\Device0","DefaultSettings.BitsPerPel",0x00010001,8

Well it didn't work, I tried both 8 & 16 bit and got the same blue screenPlease let me know if this works.
Code: Select all
Frame: <ntoskrnl.exe: 8f8a> <ntoskrnl.exe: 8faa> <ntoskrnl.exe: 31998> <C008C2DB> <ntoskrnl.exe: b22d> <C008CB39> <ntoskrnl.exe: 115C>
PC= HP Psvilion XE793, the paper work that came with the pc states
"11mb video with 16mb shared"??
Is this a vesa compatible video? (its onboard)
I personally don't need it to work on this pc any more but am willing to test.[/quote]
Hi
Thanks you try it.
Some manufactor does not make there graphice card vesa compatible.
some does. I do not exacly the problem. If you card are not vesa or not. intel say it is vesa compatible. Then it comes next part. Which version of vbe (1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.4, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0). The spec for 1.4 -> 1.9 was only at drawing some manufactor did implant it. reactos are only supproting VBE 2.0 or higher. it hard to tell what the problem are. Are the card VBE 2.0 or higher, if so did the manufactor implant all vbe2.0 call ?.
with other word I am without any idea why it fails on reactos
