I recently bought a Plus Hardcard XL 50 for my home machine
and although I love the performance of it (makes my sx seem
like a 25 mhz machine!) there is a bios conflict with my SVGA 
card (Oak Technologies OVGA-1600). The card will work only if
placed in an 8-bit and the machine hangs when used with a 16-bit
slot. I really need the 16-bit so it will support the needed 
video speed for windows. My question is, does anyone know of
a 16-bit SVGA card that will interact well with the plus card?

Thanks for any info,
Rob
