Four of the five 3d (OpenGL) screensavers do not work under NT4/SP5.
FlowerBox, FlyingObjects, Pipes and Text do not work; Maze does.

This has a Diamond Viper 550 video card as per Micron TS.

Is this the strange problem du jour?

A lot of the OEM V550 boards have problems with various OpenGL code.  Take
Descent 3 for instance.  Common problem on a Micron OEM V550 for D3 not to
work in OpenGL mode.  You find yourself using Direct3d instead.  You might
try other drivers, such as nVidia's Detonator Drivers (www.nvidia.com).
