The card will work only if placed in an 8-bit and the machine hangs when used with a 16-bit slot. I really need the 16-bit so it will support the needed video speed for windows. My question is, does anyone know of a 16-bit SVGA card that will interact well with the plus card? Thanks for any info, Rob -- Robert Mee Boston University Information Technology (rem@bu-it.bu.edu)
