Dennis, >> They are using the S3 Trio64 chipset. Is that good? << Yessir, that's great! That's the same chipset as the Diamond Stealth 64 uses. And as long as you like Hercules cards, is sounds like a winner to me. In the Vibrant config menu there is a listing for S3 864/964 and I believe thats the driver set that will work. You can post them a note to that effect asking if that's the same chip. You can see in the selection menu what the options are under S3. When I got my first Diamond card the Stealth had two version as well and the standard driver didnt' work, and I used the s3 option and it worked fine. So looks like your set. I'd just check to make sure that is the right chip but I'm almost postive as one of my DRAM boards calls it an S3 Trio64 chipset in Pctools SI. yeah! And you're very welcome… glad we could go somewhere with it after all this discussion. 🙂 Let me know how it goes, if there are any hitches, feel free to address them but I think you're in good shape!
