Graphics Subsystem Overview
Graphics Controller: S3 Trio64 V2-GX
Graphics Memory: 2 MB SGRAM
Maximum Resolution: 1280x1024 w/256 colors @ 85 Hz
The standard graphics controller used in the Deskpro 4000N/4000S Series is a PCI peripheral
that can be identified by software reading the “Vendor ID” and “Device ID” words in PCI
configuration address space locations 00h and 02h respectively. The values are as follows:
Vendor ID Device ID Graphics ASIC System
5333h 8901h S3 Trio64V2-GX Pentium MMX-based
