I am not so sure about the Graphics 2001 but the 
Stealth64 Graphics 2000 cards are supported under
NT4.  Simply use the former name Diamond gave to
it, namely "Stealth64 DRAM".  This is the one I
currently use and its based on an S3 chip.  There
is however still no InControl Tools available for
NT4 :-(
