Bill,
	A little math will show that you don't have enough memory to run your
card in 640x480x256 mode.  That requires just a little more than 307k bytes.
Your only other option until you install more memory is to run in either
640x480x16 (~154k) or 800x600x16 (~240k).

	I made this same mistake myself when I first obtained the drivers
which is why I'm so familiar with it.
