S3 P86C924 Graphics Drivers

Like many of the early S3 graphic cards this one share drivers with earlier models, most of the cards that contain the P86C924 GPU have switches allowing video modes (or resolutions) by default as monitors back in the early days couldn’t display video over 640x480 and sometimes not even that. To view the switch configuration for the Wizard 924 expand the Addition configurations section below.
