Texas does not have a published punishment for a fourth dui, but it stand too reason that it would be far more severe than the punishment for a third dui, which carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison.

I found information on 2+ DWI's in Texas and they are as follows:
Second Texas DWI Offense Plus:
Texas Criminal Status: Class A Misdemeanor. A 3rd DUI is a 3rd degree felony.
Jail: 72 hours, not more than 1 year. A 3rd DUI can mean 2-10 years in the penitentiary.
Texas DWI Fines/Costs: Fines not to exceed $4,000. Other administrative and evaluation fees may be assessed. TX imposes a “surcharge” for a DWI on top of regular fines. The surcharge is $1,500 per year for three years for a second DWI offense and $2,000 if the person’s BAC level was double or more the legal limit (.16).
Texas License Suspension: Yes, 180 days to 2 years. Occupational license may be granted based upon need.
Vehicle Impound: None.
Texas DWI School: Repeat offenders must complete a 32 hour DWI Repeat Offender Program.
Texas Probation: Terms of probation decided by judge or jury.
Texas Community Service: Minimum 80 hours, but no more than 200 hours.
