Yup, -4; I have 4ns RAM, so I'm ahead there.

Sorry, I should have been more thorough. Out of the package, I backed up the PC ROM, then flashed in one step with the "M208_166_166.ROM" in the archive from the link above (because the card runs at 166mhz with 166mhz memory). Put it in a couple macs with various monitor configurations and got the same garbled/scrambled image on each. Then I put it back in the PC, flashed it back to PC, rebooted into windows, installed drivers, restarted and played some Quake 3 for a while to make sure it was OK. It was. Then I went back to dos, flashed to mac again with "M208FULL.BIN" and got the same thing. That's where I stand. Not good is it.
