Sorry, that probably wouldn't work either, I just went through weeks of
hassle trying to get VPC-W98 up and running on my Wallstreet2 upgraded
with a Powerlogix 500MHz proc. Never got much past the splash screen
though the machine has 384MB RAM with 128MB allocated to W98. Connectix
finally told me that VPC has big problems with all upgrade cards and
offered to refund my money. Not bad, but no VPC. Beware.
