I think, if you had to put this line in, that the card is behind a
PCI/PCI bridge, which may hinder its correct operation.
Try moving the card to one of the 2 64-bit slots; they are in front of
the bridge and should prove no problem.
I'll also second the opinion of moving to a different card, as S3 ViRGe
has never been truly stable on Alpha...
Matrox Millennia are fine, as are most ATI Radeons, though I'd stay away
from the 7000/VE.a
Good luck.
