We're using the Diamond Stealth 3d 2000 vers 1.04 here.  While
obsolete, there are workarounds.  You can actually get a DS3D2K with other
bios versions (higher than 1.04), pull the chip off, and stick in a 1.04
you've burned yourself and it works great (e-me for board revs we've
tested this with).  I think I found one of these cards on ebay a few
months back for around $12.

I'll pass along the MOT S19 records for the 1.04 bios if anyone would
like them.
