Most of them are obsolete. 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. Sam
