As the title suggests, I need to locate a driver for the viseo adapter used in the Gateway computer currently being used as my tweener. The card is an 3D Banshee 9851 by Ensoniq. I have gone through the forums, looked at what used to be Ensoniq's we site, and found that since the company went out of business, there doesn't seem to be a lot of information on these video cards. I'm not worried about all of the functionlity, but I do need the proper drivers to install this video adapter. As it stands, the adapter is inly barely working with 256 color at 640 X 480 resolution and I cannot get it any higher.

Is there a driver out there for these adapters?

Thanks.
 
I know this is a long shot but I believe at least part of Ensoniq was purchased by Creative. I know that Creative has the drivers for old Ensoniq sound cards at their support page. You might try that route. . .
 
That's what I heard too, but even when I went to Creative, they didn't have anything, but the link Jorg provided opens a page where all of the primary banshee drivers are found. And that did the job.

Thanks to both of you.

Maybe Creative didn't have anything to do with the graphics cards.

I have been searching for a driver for an Ensoniqs Vivo 90DB-A for days now. I have found drivers for it, but none that work with Windows ME and that is what I was running in the machine I had it in. I replaced it with a spare Creative card, but I'd still like to have the drivers for it.
