Vector Interrupt images are not compatible from one system to the other.  The
interrupt vector table has segment:offset pointers to the ROM BIOS routines.
These segment:offset values are installed by the BIOS upon bootup of the
machine.  I don't know how to get a clean 200LX image, but I can tell you that
using another machine's VII is a bad idea.
