Hi
Thanks to "Thursday" AKA dr. john, Octave Orgeron, Thomas Leitner, Jay Nash.
I have found that there are 4 graphics cards supported:
- Elsa Gloria Synergy8 (Compaq's name PBXGK-BB) , software driver comet.
- Intense 3D PRO 2200S from Intergraph, works with graphics drivers for 4D51T(come with 4.0F distribution)
- 3D Labs Oxygen VX1 (PCI) which needs Patch Kit 7 to be installed (it provides driver p3g)
- Powestorm 300 from Compaq.
Intergraph was bought by 3D Labs and, I believe, they have discontinued production of Intense Card (it's not mentioned on their site);
I will go for 3D Labs Oxygen VX1 card, I have recieved many good replies about it.
Have a look at this site, it has a lot of information about graphics cards.

Have a look here, too.

I'm not sure about support of Powerstorm 300 on older systems.
Same story with 3D Labs Oxygen VX1.
Good luck to all.

Can you suggest any graphics cards supported by 4.0f, and you are happy with.
(also should support 1280x1024, 24 bits deep)
Technical Overview mentions QVision, we are using Elsa Gloria.
Anything else, third party?
Thanks
