Overview
Key features :
- The main IDEA of the project was taken from standard XP/2003 VGA.SYS display driver with generic VESA BIOS Extensions (VBE) 1.02/2.00/3.00+ support.
- It is a standard Windows NT™ Video Display Driver.
- It supports ALL of MS Windows NT™ Family (3.x,4.0,2000(5.0),XP/XPMCE/WFLP 32-bit(5.1),2003 Server 32-bit(5.2)).
- Windows Preinstallation Environment (WinPE) is also supported.
- It supports a wide range of videocards emulated via virtualization software: Bochs, QEMU, VMware, Innotek VirtualBox, Microsoft VirtualPC.
- For proper operation my driver expects that your video card's BIOS is 100%-compatible with VESA Video BIOS extensions specification. Nowadays there are many video cards that don't fully supports INT10 interface, which is provided by VESA/VBE standard (See VBE FAQ below for details).
- Supports VBE 2.00+ compliant PCI/AGP/PCI-E video cards with linear frame buffer.
- Partially supports VBE 1.x compliant ISA/EISA/MCA/VLB/PCI video cards with linear frame buffer (only S3, Tseng Labs, Cirrus Logic, Trident chips).
- Under Windows XP and later, it supports VBE 1.x ISA/EISA/MCA/VLB/PCI video cards with bank switching (Like Intel 810/815 cards, old ISA/MCA/VLB-bus cards). In other cases it is limited to 320x200x8bit mode.
- Supports VBE-incompatible EGA/VGA video cards (old ISA/EISA/MCA-bus cards) with bank switching limited to monochrome and 320x200x8bit modes via additional VGA13H driver.
- For usermode part of the driver it uses standard framebuf.dll supplied with ANY Windows NT™.
- 256color(8bit), 15bit (R5G5B5), 16bit (R5G6B5), 24bit, 32bit true color modes support.
- From 320x200x8bit to every resolution which your video card's BIOS supports.
- Video mode filtering using registry (organized like ATI's DALRestrictedModesBCD key). You can disable unneeded modes using this technique.
- Under Windows NT 4.00™ and later, it supports USWC (Uncached Speculative Write Combining) using processor's MTRR registers.
- Under Windows 2000™ and later, it supports Advanced Power Management (i.e. Stand by, Hibernation), Monitor & Child Devices Detection. Legacy-type drivers and NT3/NT4 support for these features exist, but it is limited.
- Under Windows 2000™ and later, it supports internal Windows GDI Acceleration using shadow buffer. Beta support for Windows NT 4.00™ exists via modified version of framebuf.dll.
- VBE 3.00+ support: refresh rate switching (3Dfx, nVidia, Intel video cards for example). Note that in some cases system restart IS REQUIRED for successful change of refresh rate in Windows NT 4.00™/2000™.
- Under Windows 2000™ and later, it supports internal Windows support for accelerated Mode-X modes with width of 320 pixels via MODEX.DLL.
Planned features :
- Windows NT 3.1 support (in beta now, no 8 bit modes support)
- Windows Alpha, MIPS, PowerPC architecture support
- Feature to install the driver without reboot
- Shadow buffer acceleration support for NT4 (in beta now)
- ICM (color management), rotation and zooming support
- More than one device for output (display, video out device, flat panel)
- 2-bit (mono) and 4-bit (16 colors) support for testing purposes only
- Old adapters support like EGA, CGA, Hercules etc. for testing purposes only :)
Download drivers
This driver is intended for using in case when your have some new or unknown video card(s) and you don't have drivers for it. It's better to contact manufacturer of your video card or search THE WEB for the drivers. ONLY if you finally cannot find driver for your video card I recommend you to use mine (vbemp.sys). My driver does not provide any kind of 3D hardware acceleration (DirectX & OpenGL). For this purpose third-party libraries can be used.
If your card made by AMD-ATI Technologies and this card is detected as two devices ('Radeon xxxx' and 'Radeon xxxx Secondary') only 'Manual' or 'legacy' version may work with it.
My driver does NOT support multiple video cards and/or displays connected simultaneously and this feature is NOT planned.
My driver does NOT support any editions of Windows Vista/Windows 7 and newer.
Before installing VBEMP.SYS I recommend removing any display drivers installed including any previous or newer VBEMP driver versions and switching to the standard VGA mode 640x480x16colors.
- Windows NT 3.1 - latest Service Pack (SP3) is recommended
- Windows NT 3.5 - latest Service Pack (SP3) is recommended
- Windows NT 3.51 - latest Service Pack (SP5) is recommended, AGP/PCI-E cards may not work without special update *
- Windows NT 4.0 - latest Service Pack (SP6a) is recommended, AGP/PCI-E cards may not work without special update *
- Windows 2000 - latest Service Pack (SP4) is recommended
- Windows XP - latest Service Pack (SP3) is recommended **
- Windows 2003 Server - latest Service Pack (SP2) is recommended **
* If you have problems installing VBEMP or any other driver in Windows NT 4.0 (and NT 3.51) - blank screen, system hang after restart - read this MS Article. Details here: MSKB: AGP Video Support for Windows NT 3.51 and 4.0 (Q174567). Install Service Pack 3 or later for Windows NT 4.0, and Q174567 Hotfix for Windows NT 3.51 to solve this problem.
** Windows XP/Windows 2003 version is not necessarily needed because basic functionality of it is also included in standard VGA.SYS. Comparing to my driver, VGA.SYS:
- Supports 4-bit (16 colors) modes 640x480, 800x600
- VESA BIOS modes support is limited for some cards:
- Cannot switch to modes less than 640x480
- Cannot switch display refresh rates using VBE 3.0 standard
- Write Combining (USWC) acceleration is not supported
- 15-bpp R5G5B5 modes are skipped

Installation note 1: If your card is working slowly and screen is flickering with VBEMP installed, especially when moving large windows and scrolling texts you may improve it:
- Windows 2000 (and later): go to Control Panel -> Display -> Settings tab -> Advanced button -> Troubleshooting tab and move Hardware acceleration slider to the left position (None). In Windows XP/2003 Server, make sure that Write Combining Checkbox is set on. Details here: MSKB: How to Change the Graphics Hardware Acceleration Setting in Windows (Q263391)
- Windows NT 4.0 (and NT 3.5x): use new framevbe.dll - replace standard %SystemRoot%SYSTEM32framebuf.dll with it.
Installation note 2: Starting from version dated 10.19.2007, vbemp?.zip contains these variants of VBEMP driver:
- OEM - additional files for unattended VBEMP installation
- VBE30XP2003PNP - Windows XP/2003 PnP-version (VBE 1.x/2.0/3.0)
- VBE20XP2003PNP - Windows XP/2003 PnP-version (VBE 1.x/2.0)
- VBE30XP2003LEGACY - Windows XP/2003 LEGACY-version (VBE 1.x/2.0/3.0)
- VBE20XP2003LEGACY - Windows XP/2003 LEGACY-version (VBE 1.x/2.0)
- VBE30W2KPNP - Windows 2000 PnP-version (VBE 1.x/2.0/3.0)
- VBE20W2KPNP - Windows 2000 PnP-version (VBE 1.x/2.0)
- VBE30W2KLEGACY - Windows 2000 LEGACY-version (VBE 1.x/2.0/3.0)
- VBE20W2KLEGACY - Windows 2000 LEGACY-version (VBE 1.x/2.0)
- VBE30NT4 - Windows NT 4.0 version (VBE 1.x/2.0/3.0)
- VBE20NT4 - Windows NT 4.0 version (VBE 1.x/2.0)
- VBE30NT35X - Windows NT 3.5x version (VBE 1.x/2.0/3.0)
- VBE20NT35X - Windows NT 3.5x version (VBE 1.x/2.0)
- VBE30NT31 - Windows NT 3.1 version (VBE 1.x/2.0/3.0)
- VBE20NT31 - Windows NT 3.1 version (VBE 1.x/2.0)
Installation note 3: As you can see, there are two versions of VBEMP driver for Windows 2000/XP/2003/PE - PnP and LEGACY. And there are VBE20 and VBE30 driver types. What is it for:
- PnP-version: for Plug'n'Play-cards only (i.e. PCI/AGP/PCIe Bus).
- LEGACY-version: for nonPnP-cards (i.e. ISA/VLB/MCA Bus) and also for WinPE direct VGA.SYS replacement.
- VBE30-version: supports refresh rate switching mechanism (you need a VBE30-compatible card and a CRT display to make this stuff work). These refresh rates are supported: 50,60,70,72,75,80,85,90,100,120,140,144,150,160,170,200,240. Separately supported modes: 800x600x56Hz, 1024x768x43 interlaced. If you ever see 55 Hz in mode list it means - default or safe refresh.
- VBE20-version: does NOT support refresh rate switching mechanism (use it, if you have a non-CRT monitor or your card is NOT VBE30 compatible). This version is HIGHLY recommended for use in virtualization environment (Bochs, QEMU, VMware...).
Installation note 4: By default, any Plug'n'Play video cards will be detected CORRECTLY by 2000/XP/2003 version of my driver. But if you wish, you MAY add your video card's PCI VENDOR/DEVICE ID in vbemppnp.inf so your card will named as it is or you can select the driver manually when Windows firstly find an unknown device. This is an optional operation!
Sample:
To create a string you may use Craig Hart's PCI32 tool mentioned below, here is a sample listing:
Installation note 5: My driver does not provide any support for running fullscreen DOS applications in VESA graphics modes. VGA.SYS controls it and in most cases it traps i/o ports and prevents VESA-based programs to run correctly. There are third-party patches - WinXPFix Utility (http://www.nomissoft.com/service.html#as2downloads) and 'Videoport driver patch for VESA in NTVDM' (http://www.volny.cz/martin.sulak/, direct download videoprt.zip) that fixes VGA.SYS behaviour. Try them if you need to run DOS programs in Windows. I am not affiliate with author(s) of these programs.
Installation note 6: By default system core Microsoft-made FRAMEBUF.DLL driver used in conjunction with VBEMP driver as usermode component. But there is a problem - it filters 15-bpp modes. There are three options to resolve this problem:
- Access only 16-bpp modes:
- Use default FRAMEBUF.DLL
- Access only 15-bpp modes:
- Use default FRAMEBUF.DLL and registry parameter VBE_RGB555 = 1
- Access both 15-bpp and 16-bpp modes (w/o acceleration):
- Use modified FRAMEBUF.DLL
- Access both 15-bpp and 16-bpp modes (with acceleration):
- Use FRAMEVBE.DLL
Installation note 7: If you trying to use VBEMP driver with ISA/MCA/VLB card in most cases you must play with the following BIOS Setup options:
- 'ISA LFB Base Address'
- 'ISA Linear Frame Buffer'
- 'ISA VGA Frame Buffer Size'
- 'Memory Hole At 15M-16M'
* To get RELEASE-version of this driver (which is more stable, smaller & faster than DEBUG-version) you should contact me by e-mail & send me report generated by INFOVBE.EXE tool, so I could send you RELASE-version of the driver by e-mail. I recommend this version after you get completely sure that DEBUG-version works with your card properly.
** If universal version does not work with your card, you may try Manual version. To get such version you should contact me by e-mail & send me report generated by INFOVBE.EXE, so I could send you personal driver for your video card by e-mail.
*** How to install VBEMP driver in Windows PE environment:- For CD-installation: place vbemp.sys in I386SYSTEM32DRIVERS dir, vbempnp.inf in I386INF dir. I've also recommended to remove display.inf from I386INF dir.
- For HDD-installation: place vbemp.sys in MININTSYSTEM32DRIVERS dir, vbempnp.inf in MININTINF dir. I've also recommended to remove display.inf from MININTINF dir.
- After WindowsPE boots, run this: This line will start the driver.
- Replace %SystemRoot%SYSTEM32DRIVERSVGA.SYS with my one and reboot.
Registry settings
To configure VBEMP driver you can also use VBEMP Control Panel extension. Here are the values:Meaning : if '0'-'4' or key is not exists Shadow Buffering is disabled. if '5' - enabled. This value has meaning for all versions of VBEMP, working under Windows2000 and later (XP/2003). Recommended setting is 5.
Restart needed : Yes.
Meaning : if '0' or key is not exists VBEMP in 256-color modes uses standard palette, if '1' - greyscaled one.
Restart needed : No.
Meaning : This value has meaning only for ISA/MCA/VLB cards. (first appear in may2007 version!).
Restart needed : Yes.
Meaning : This value has meaning only for ISA/MCA/VLB cards. You get this value from video card documentation or you must know it definitely and have some options:
- If this value is below 16Mb line (< 0x1000000) and you have less than 16Mb system memory it's OK to install VBEMP without additional steps.
- If this value is below 16Mb line (< 0x1000000) and you have 16Mb or more system memory you must enable 'Memory hole option' in your computer BIOS Setup Program.
- If this value is above or equal 16Mb line (>= 0x1000000) and you have 16Mb or more system memory make sure that video- and system memory spaces are NOT crossover. If they crossover, you have no option to install VBEMP on such computer. In this case, you may try to disable or limit memory use to value below frame buffer base by using /MAXMEM or /BURNMEMORY switch in your boot.ini file.
This value has meaning only for ISA/MCA/VLB cards. (first appear in may2007 version!).
Restart needed : Yes.
Meaning : if '0' or key is not exists Write Combining feature (USWC) is disabled, if '1' - enabled. (first appear in june2007 version!).
Restart needed :
Sis Others Driver Download For Windows 8
Yes.Meaning : if '0' or key is not exists frame buffer memory is aligned to 64Kb boundary, if '1' - aligned to 4Mb boundary, if '2' - all adapter memory allocated at once. '1' setting is recommended when Write Combining feature (USWC) is enabled. (first appear in june2007 version!).
Restart needed : No.
Meaning : if '0' or key is not exists Vertical sync polarity is negative, if '1' - positive. (first appear in june2007 VBE30 version only!).
Restart needed : No.
Meaning : if '0' or key is not exists Horizontal sync polarity is negative, if '1' - positive. (first appear in june2007 VBE30 version only!).
Restart needed : No.
The settings for the HSync and VSync polarity need to be obtained from the monitors papers. As a guideline you can assume that the 640 x 400 mode uses -Hsync and +Vsync, the 640 x 480 modes mainly use +Hsync and +Vsync and all higher modes (800 x 600 and above) mainly use -Hsync and -Vsync polarities.
Meaning : if key is not exists VBEMP does use mode filtering. (first appear in july2007 version!).Restart needed : Yes.
Meaning : if '0' or key is not exists VBEMP does not detect PNP display using PnP-manager, if '1' - detects it. (first appear in june2007 version! Not for legacy-mode drivers!).
Restart needed : Yes.
Meaning : if '0' or key is not exists VBEMP does not detect PNP display using internal driver routines, if '1' - detects it. (first appear in july2007 version!).
Restart needed : Yes.
Meaning : When VBE_EDID = 1, EDID block is written here. (first appear in july2007 version!).
Meaning : if '0' or key is not exists display scaling is on, if '1' - display scaling off and centered, if '2' - display scaling off and top left corner. This value has meaning only for nVidia cards connected to LCD display via DVI.(first appear in january2009 version!).
Restart needed : Yes.
Meaning : if '0' or key is not exists R5G5B5 modes reported as 15-bpp and R5G6B5 - as 16-bpp, if '1' - R5G5B5 modes reported as 16-bpp and R5G6B5 - as 15-bpp. This change needs for correct Microsoft FRAMEBUF.DLL driver, which cannot use mode when it reported as 15-bpp. (first appear in june2010 version!).
Restart needed : Yes.

Driver troubleshooting
When you have problems with VBEMP, there are two basics scenarios:
- Computer starts, but driver is not working properly.
- Computer not starts, i.e. crashes, having BSOD or 'hang'.
Before debugging try these actions, provided below:
- Physically remove memory chips or uses /MAXMEM boot.ini's switch to do it in this manner (if you have 1024 Mb RAM): 512 -> 256 -> 128 -> 64 -> 32 -> 16 -> 8.
- Upgrade motherboard's BIOS to the latest version.
- Clear CMOS settings to default or safe.
- Decrease AGP Aperture in BIOS as it is unused by VBEMP.
- Temporarily remove any external controllers as: usb, sound, hdd, lan or others.
- Try a videocard with another bus: AGP, PCIe, PCI, onboard.
To start debugging process you MUST request a LOGGED-version (for method 1) or a DEBUG-version (for methods 2,3) of driver from me by e-mail. For methods 2,3 you MUST READ this article WinDbg basics HOWTO for QA engineers to understand which debug method is suitable in your case. Here are the solutions in brief:
- Method #1 (using logged version): Install logged version. When it runs, logging is made to %SystemRoot% location (which is usually 'C:WINDOWS' or 'C:WINNT') to logfile vbemp.log. Please send me this log after you system is loaded or crashed.
- Method #2 (using DbgPrint logger): Download KdPrint/DbgPrint logger http://alter.org.ua/en/soft/win/dbgdump/#download (the 1st one, 'archive with all necessary files'). For NT 3.5x debugging use THIS[?],[?],[?] version. It also works with later Windows NT versions.
- Extract it to somewhere (for example, in C:DbgDump)
- Start cmd.exe (via Start ->Run, simply enter there cmd.exe and click Run)
- In opened window enter:
- Reboot. Make sure that logfile is made. C:BootVbe.log must exist.
- Install VBEMP driver.
- Reboot. After that, you get a logfile from my driver C:BootVbe.log. Send me it by e-mail.
- Now it is time to disable logger: run cmd.exe (see above)
- In opened window enter:
- Method #3 (using WinDbg/i386KD): You may use Windows 32bit x86 kernel debugger WinDbg/i386KD to trace debug logging information from the driver via serial port.
Connect two PC's using nullmodem serial cable with this pinout:- For Windows NT3/NT4/W2K/XP/2003:
On target PC - edit boot.ini file, placed in the root dir of your hard drive; before: After: When starting target PC you must select in menu 'Windows NT Version 4.00 DBG' line for debugmode activation. - For Windows NT3/NT4/W2K/XP/2003 in first boot stage and also for WindowsPE:
On target PC - edit txtsetup.sif file, placed in the /I386 or /MININT dir of your boot drive; before: After:
Firstly, connect two PC's via serial cable.
Secondly, start host PC and execute cmd-file.
Then start target PC. It will be started in debugmode. If target PC hangs, break i386kd on debugger PC ([Ctrl]+[B],[Enter]) and send vbe.log to me. - For Windows NT3/NT4/W2K/XP/2003:
After you produce logs from driver you can give me additional information about your system and video adapter. This step is optional!!! Without driver logs this information is meaningless for me!!!
Collect VESA BIOS and system information :
- Download NEW 2in1INFOVBE.EXE ([?],[?],[?]) tool. This archive also contains 1.44 Mb bootable floppy image with this tool for users who don't have DOS or Windows9x already installed.You must run it under pure MS-DOS (Real Mode) like:
- Download Craig Hart's PCI32, pci104vka tool(s) and PCI devices list (place them in one directory overwriting existing version of pcidevs.txt). You must run it under Windows NT/2K/XP/2003 like: Please send me vbe.txt, devpci.txt, devpci.htm in compressed view (rar, zip, 7z...) by e-mail.
For ISA/MCA/VLB card owners: There are new tools - lfb_det.exe/lfb.exe, which can automatically detect linear frame buffer address of your card in system address space. They are distrubuted only by request via e-mail. Read pp.3 ('Collect system information'), make logs and I will send you these tools.
VBE FAQ: VESA BIOS Extensions standard deviation list
Cards (chips) affected | Description |
Intel 845G, 855G, 865G, 915G and later | PRB: Cannot set native resolutions i.e. 1024x600, 800x480, 1280x800, mostly on notebooks with Intel integrated graphics. |
Intel 845G, 855G, 865G, 915G and later | PRB: Cannot set resolution higher than 800x600x8bits and 640x480x16bits. |
Intel 810E, 815E series | PRB: Cannot use linear frame buffer, but card identifies itself as VBE 3.0 compatible. |
ATI Radeon Xkkkk series (starting with X700) | PRB: Cannot use custom screen refresh rates, but card identifies itself as VBE 3.0 compatible. |
nVidia GeForce 5xxx/6xxx/7xxx (and newer ones) | PRB: Cannot use custom screen refresh rates, but card identifies itself as VBE 3.0 compatible. |
Intel 7/8 Seies Chipset Graphics (and newer ones) | PRB: Cannot use custom screen refresh rates, but card identifies itself as VBE 3.0 compatible. |
nVidia GeForce 5xxx/6xxx/7xxx (and newer ones) | PRB: Cannot set any resolution higher than 800x600. |
VESA 1.x cards | PRB: When accessing fullscreen textmode, computer 'hangs'. |
Different VESA cards | PRB: When calling VBE functions, highword bits of EAX register and may be others (i.e. 0x????0000) may contain garbage. |
Matrox, Trident, TsengLabs cards | PRB: When calling VBE functions, 16-bit R5G5B5 and R5B6G5 modes both reported as 16-bit. In some cases it confuses VESA programs - if I choose 16-bpp mode, which color model (555 or 565) will be used? |
