   Detecting the correct graphic driver and mode did not even work when BP7   
   was released.   
   Since long I use a test program where you can selecting driver, mode and   
   aspect ratio. The software did run on many computers before. Usually at   
   least one of the drivers works.

   Simply none of the drivers works in none of the modes.   
   Among them all the original borland bgi drivers   
   svga256   
   svgabg55   
   svga333b   
   the Switala svga driver   
   the Ryle drivers (commercial)   
      
   I have quit a collection here. But I can't recall any widescreen resolution.   
      
   In most cases the NTVDM-CPU made an illegal call. In some other cases   
   the nothing is shown, the screen is simply black.   
      
   the graphic card turnsout to be a Geforce Go 6150
