This is an ALTERNATE driver for the Diamond Multimedia Stealth II S220. It is for WinNT/2k/XP. Diamond DOES NOT SUPPORT this card anymore, included are drivers for the Rendition Verite 2200, and a bios update that will change the firmware from Stealth II S220 to the Verite 2200. These two cards use the SAME processor, and are compatible.
1) In the BIOS conversion folder, there are instructions for updating BIOS.
2) Using the Update Drivers technique, update the windows drivers using the v2200nt5.inf
3) If the card does not initalize, restart. That fixed it for me!
Good Luck!
P.S. There are other drivers out there that are the same, I have just repackaged them, with instructions and details.
