So, I lost my patience ... uninstalled everything and installed Windows 95
Look:
Now I would like to understand, before I curse, because in Windows 95, there are no problems and in Windows 98SE yes????

I will do it tomorrow, if I do an upgrade to windows 98SE, instead of a clean install, shouldn't there be any problems?

That makes absolutely no sense. I'm having a huge WTF SMH moment.

Fully agree with you! I didn't understand anything about this whole situation.
Tomorrow I upgrade to Windows 98SE and hopefully everything goes well!

Regarding the Windows 98SE problem, was the Matrox card installed after Windows 98SE was installed. When you did a clean install of Windows 95 was the Matrox card installed before 95 was installed? Can't say that would be the problem though, probably not.

I dimly remember something about IRQ's (Interrupt Requests) that back in the day had to be manually configured. You might research this.
If there are no responses to my post for 3 days I remove it from my answer list. If you wish to continue the thread after 3 days please PM me.

Windows 98SE was also installed clean. The problem presents itself all the same.

See if your device is listed here
https://us.driverscollection.com/?did=2169
What is that? I can not understand.
The drivers offered here are not the latest, I have G450 v.6.83, these are at version G450 v.6.82.

I understand, the problem. In Windows 95 it does not show up, since during installation you can specify which devices to install.
I remember now, I told him to ignore the integrated card, and to install the generic driver for the Matrox.
Once windows started, I installed the matrox drivers, and when it restarted, only after windows did it automatically install the integrated video card drivers!
This meant that the matrox board was set as the main one and the problem did not arise.
Then for safety I deactivated the integrated card and everything ended well!
Question, in Windows 98 is it possible to do such an installation? Because that option has been removed, but I see that it is very useful to have it, this is a point in favor of Windows 95.

I wanted to update windows, but I get a message:
Your computer already has an operating system installed, but it is impossible to update it with this version of the installer. Use the Windows 98 update.
I searched the web for this update in Italian, but I can't find it ....

So, update completed. Guess what?! Everything works perfectly!
Because? why?! If I install Windows 98 clean, does it give problems? As an upgrade from windows 95 to 98 no! I don't understand anything!
