I probably shouldn't ask where you found a Pentium motherboard with
VLB slots. It's certainly not a common combination.
In the days when I was using a Viper VLB, one of the problems that
Diamond had not yet solved was how to install their drivers before
starting Windows. I learned -- after a great deal of wasted time --
to specify vanilla VGA to get Windows up and running, and only switch
to the Viper drivers once Windows was up.
