As far as I know it does - it's a Matrox G200 (8Mb). (I am aware that this
will not support the highest resolutions, etc, but if I cannot get to the
opening menu screen, how on earth am I supposed to change the video
settings...??

And it ran the demo version of Quake 3 for a while until I could get a full
version....! (Which I've only just tried to install, due to having too many
other things I needed to do...!)
