I posted alot of "wanted" messages in various newsgroups on the net (swedish)
and I didn't get many answers but I did get a few and I now have a 4MB VRAM
card. I just wished I had a better monitor as 1024x768 is about what I can
get out of this one and it could have been a better, sharper, display as well.

Don't give up. A good place is to post in various newsgroups and sooner
