Try the following DejaNews entry: http://x7.dejanews.com/[ST_rn=qs]/getdoc.xp?AN=432621689&CONTEXT=924278103.1877409902&hitnum=0 Basically it lists the following: PBXGA-A* (ZLXp-E1) PBXGA-B* (ZLXp-E2) PBXGA-C* (ZLXp-E3) PBXGC-A* (ZLXp-L1) PBXGC-B* (ZLXp-L2) PB2GA-A* (Compaq QVision 1024/E) PB2GA-HA (Compaq QVision 1280/P) PB2GA-FA (ATI Mach64 CX) PB2GA-FB (ATI Mach64 GX) PB2GA-JA (S3 Trio64 2MB) PB2GA-JB (S3 Trio64 1MB) PB2GA-JC (S3 Trio64V+ 1MB) PB2GA-JD (S3 Trio64V+ 2MB) PX2GA-JA (PowerStorm 3D10) PBXGB-AA (PowerStorm 3D30) PBXGB-CA (PowerStorm 4D20) I've got a friend that is using a Generic S3 card in place of the "PB2GA-JA (S3 Trio64 2MB)". We took a look at my card, and went to a used dealer we know and found one that would work. Zane -- One of these day's I've got to quit being lazy and come up with a signature. <>
