Dont bother with the $75 dollars. I had a company give me
a Genoa 6400 to try out and it would not work in any machine
I tried with a bus speed in excess of 8MHz. Be carefull!
Make sure you try before you buy........
There are drivers for the Genoa 6400 on cica.cica.indiana.edu
and I have used them with the Genoa 5400 no problems.
I think the file is called genoadrv.zip in /pub/pc/win3/video
Cheers.
