Cirrus Logic were among the best SVGA cards in their day, and they should show Hercules (well, as CGA, as explained above). If you tell me the problem wasn't the monitor I'll have to believe you, naturally.

Oh, and 1024x768x256 was the highest mode for *any* SVGA card with 1 Mb. RAM. If you wanted more, you had to find more RAM for your card, and that wasn't easy nor cheap.

But for a real lousy experience with a SVGA card, try a Trident. My first one was one of those, and it often killed my monitor whenever it tried to access beyond 640x480 modes, especially under Windows 3.X.
