Thanks for the post. I have tried your config on my card, and it has the same effect as all the other configs I have tried so far - it hangs the machine solid. (FX: having tried Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, Ctrl-Alt-+, Ctrl-Alt--, Ctrl-Alt-Del, Shift-Ctrl-F1 through F6 and "halt" from a telnet session [no echo or response], hits the reset button). So, if you have a Diamond Stealth 64, don't bother, just throw away the card and get a new one (like I'm going to soon). -- Nikki Locke, Trumphurst Ltd.
