Namely: 1) If you are willing to buy a PCI video card with a BIOS from 1995 that is version 1.0x, what else are you willing to pay for? I have 5 PC XT 8086 desktops from 1980 that, if properly daisy-chained, make an excellent 586-class PC. 2) I recommend that by carefully positioning the problem video/controller card between your right index finger and thumb, and gently inserting it under your left foot then shifting your body weight to the left, applying great pressure on the PCI card underfoot, will *actually* shift the mis-aligned data bits within the card to their proper original sequence. 3) If that fails, get a pizza delivered. 4) MOST IMPORTANT: Be sure to tip the driver. --Anthony
