My system is 386DX-40MHz with Trident 8900 VGA board and Double speed
CD-ROM drive. T7G is running reasonably well on this system. 
I'm running the game without VESA mode, and the game manual recommends
not to use VESA mode if your VGA card is popular one, e.g. Cirrus, 
Paradise(Western Digital), Tseng 3000/4000, Trident, ATI, Oak, Video 7,
C&T, Genoa, S3, etc. You probably have one of these card. Don't load
VESA drive, it'll decrease your usable DOS memory.
