Robin,
        If I read the error message correctly then you need a bit more video
memory. Sorry to say that throwing money at the problem may be your fix.
In this day and age you _need_ a 4meg or more vid board. 4megs is pretty
much the minimum these days, and when I say that I'm talking about your
regular 2d board, not a 3dfx add-on card.
        Good luck, all the best, Mike Davis

I'm fairly sure the demo only supports 3Dfx cards... and the Diamond Stealth
64 is not one.
