I just got this from Glenn at GW2000:

So there are *not* any ATI drivers later than 44(?) that have passed GW2000's
QA.  I tried build 53, and got bizarre banding across the top of my screen
when I ran a small DOS window under Windows 3.1 (this is the banding that
Glenn referred to).  I have since gone back to build 44, the one shipped with
the system.
