I've only taken the quickest of looks at the 8514/A driver (IBMPS2DA.DRV), but the code segment and resources look identical to the VGA driver (IBMPS250.DRV), and the GDIINFO structure is thus the same (640x480 in 8 colours). I think literally the only difference may be the description string.

Windows 1.04 IBM OEM don't include famous IBM Logo on windows boot screen. Windows 1.04 IBM OEM did have PS/2 mouse support. Nice Find
Re: MS Windows 1.04 PS/2 OEM
Nice find! Do you think that these drivers will work with a 1.01 version too?
Re: MS Windows 1.04 PS/2 OEM
I see no reason why they wouldn't, but of course, the only way to know for sure is by trying it.
