Thanks for the reply JT! Great info about the background behind win95 and 98. Very much
appreciated.
Speaking of such I was looking at Visiontek Xtasy GeForce4 Ti 4600 because of its
compatibility with win98 and TV IN-Out:

opinions on that card?
Also, has anyone ever tried using two video cards on a single motherboard? One that is
compatible with older OS's like win95 and the other for win98 win2k? Would it cause a
conflict? Or would it be uninstalled (drivers) and therefore invisible as far as the
unintended OS is concerned?
