Need help with NFS SE

Hi all,
    Just picked up a copy of The Need for Speed SE and I can't get it to
run.  It installs OK, but when I attempt to run the game I get the Black
Screen of Death.  I have the lastest S3 drivers and all of my hardware is
DirectX certified.  I'm running the game on a Cyrix 120+, 16Meg Ram,
Diamond Stealth 3d 2000 2 Meg video.  What gives?  Any help is appreciated

                Thanks in advance...
                        Joe

P.S. Attempting to run in Win95...game craps out during  install in DOS.....

Have you tried installing in DOS by booting your computer directly to
DOS WITHOUT booting Win95 first (using F8)?  If not, try that and see
what happens...
