Someone posted earlier that you could install win3 as 8514 then change
system.ini to point to vga.drv  or vga800.drv (in my case). Well, I tried.
It didn't work on my Paradise+ 16. It only came up in real mode. I later
grepped all the ini files for 8514 and found that the driver is referred to
in at least one other place, I think two. Changing these led to disaster.

Hope this saves someone some time.
