- That really sucks. At least I know not to purchase another Diamond
- product again. However, in their defense, they do have Win3.1
- drivers. I received my diskette from them about a week before
- I threw out Win3.1 in favor of OS/2. As far as I could tell, the
- 3.1 drivers worked just fine on my Speedstar HiColor board.
