I am using the Trident 2.0 Beta drivers as you read this.  I too deleted
all the associated files and tried the 1024x768 drivers.  They work like
a charm albiet a slightly tarnished one.  They tend to leave vertical
lines here and there, now and then, but other than that, they are slightly
faster and they work better with MDI applications.  There were DEFINITELY
problems with the old ones now and then with the system menus of MDI
children windows.  Anyway, I would just delete ALL trident drivers again
and reinstall (setup).  I deleted tvga.drv, vddtvga.386 and w1024.drv.  Ran
setup and that was it.  Except if you use the 'large' fonts, you'll probably
be asked for the fonts disk to load all the fixed (res 8514/a) fonts.
