Well, I'm running a 66-EISA w/ ATI UGPro & a Texel 3024 on an Adaptec
1742/A SCSI controller, and the game runs great here too, but since
that's what they basically developed it on I assume it would :)

Well, considering that you can buy the Texel internal ROM (dual speed,
256K buffer, 300K transfer, multisession, photo-CD, etc etc etc) for
$360 bare from CDW I don't think that's either incredable or expensive,
but then again, that's just my 0.02c.

See, the reason I asked about the ROM question was because a 256K buffer
is significantly larger than a 64K buffer and if the error 20 is a
buffer overflow and they are designing their access routines around a
256K buffer ROM, ... ... ...

But anyway :)
