Checked, and the card is a 32mb 7000, not a 9800. Even if I got the firmware flashed to work with x86, it would probably be no better and possibly worse than modern onboard gfx... I remember now getting it from the Staples remaindered shelf because it was cheap and didn't need a fan, when fan failures had eaten the original card and the 9800 mum originally bought to replace it, plus an NVidia I don't remember the model of in a DIY I built for a CS class. I seriously have the worst luck with cooling fans!
