Hey, you're getting a lot farther than me.  I'm using a Diamond Stealth 64
PCI 2 MB DRAM board, and whenever I try to run uvconfig my system crashes.
And it crashes HARD;  a simple reset doesn't work, I have to turn the PC
off/on again to reboot.

Fortunately, my bios will run Duke in 640x480 just fine.  But I want to
run Quake in the high-res modes as well, but I can't get it to work.  I
also can't run 11th Hour from DOS without everything being "blue-scale"; 
oddly, it works just fine in Win95.
