The dip switches are to disable VGA support if you have another
VGA adaptor in your system. I think you should have SW7 On (down)
and SW8 Off (up) for normal use (and the others don't matter in
this case). However the manual is not very clear on this point.

The jumpers are described in the manual as for setting the IRQ,
but it goes on to say IRQ is not used and the jumpers must all
be left open circuit.

If this doesn't work, mail me and I'll open up my system to see
how they're all set.
