I've picked up the P650 card for real cheap ($15 shipped to my door) and thought
I'd give it a go in my OS2 machine.

Using the SNAP 3.1.8 drivers, the card is recognized (AGP bus, 64Meg), running
1600x1200 @32bit.

However I am getting a lot of screen artifacts...meaning that pretty much all my
text (window, buttons, fields) has random 'dots' all over the place.

In comparison, when using Firefox the browser window itself does NOT exhibit
this...

Has anyone seen this?

Some things to try:

* GACtrl accel most
* GACtrl accel none
* You can try using GAMemClk to slow down the speed of the video memory
clock.
* Use GACtrl to disable some features like write combining.

Try only one thing at a time.
