I tried this with mixed success. First I found that following the instructions
in the readme file which tells you to modify the system.ini file manually
crashed my system. Once I ignored that I was able to get the drivers to
work. But I'm using a Nec 3d, and you must use vmode /ni to get the high
res drivers to work with this monitor.	 The mode switching is less than
perfect, however, and the result is a significant and ugly delay between full
screen and windowed modes on non-windows apps.

Also, the fonts are tiny in 1028x768 mode. Does anyone know how to deal
with that?
