Very likely, coz otherwise you probably still would run 640x480x16 me 
thinks.
Just have a look at your config.sys, if there is an entry

DEVICE=\OS2\SDDHELP.SYS /Q

you have SDD or SNAP already installed.

If you had software choice you sure should have been able to download 
the latest IBM SNAP SE.

??? don't see anything like that there. And remember, anything at that 
location is the full edition and needs to be registrated separately.
Or did you have a download from an IBM software choice site?

IIRC the Matrox propriatary drivers don't incorporate the double head 
feature. But, by Jove, I haven't had any look at then since 1999, so 
don't shoot me if I am wrong.

Anyway, if you have acces to the IBM SNAP SE the matrox antiques are of 
no interest.

btw: what video card are you using now?
