Does the latest BIOS version seem to be buggy? You might want
to check directly at the web site of the chipset manafacturer, and get
drivers there. That's what IBM told me to do for the Chips & Tech drives -
to go directly to their web site.
Except for switching to DOS windowed and WIN-OS/2 windows getting
distorted (or improperly scanned), the drivers work well, and it seems that
my graphics are more colorful than the Macs at school (on Netscape) with
256 colors.
