What are the color depths I can use with "savage" driver. Can I at least use 24 bit color? Is there a way to get full use of my VGA card.

Zammi,you need ram to run any VGA,adjust the shared ram then worry about 
what the S3 can do,I run a nVidia FX 5700 with 128MB of ram,it runs 3D, 
FPS=4460 and 32bit VGA.
