Starfield background? That one where the desktop was flying in the starfield? It probably used dual playfield screen mode not possible on gfx card...
I doubt it used dual playfield mode ;-) but it probably used hardware sprites. On the Amiga chipset, you can make a beautiful parallax scrolling starfield with only one sprite (re-using the same sprite at different points in the display courtesy of the copper). But, true, it's definitely not possible on a gfx card.
