Very unlikely, as I believe I was unsuccessful with a 7500... :-(

I highly doubt that any nVidia cards will work in there; the only one
I've got is an old ELSA TNT2, and it black screens the console...
Cards known to work in there that might fit the bill are the Matrox
Millenniums (perhaps a PCI G200 will work as well?), Permedia-2 based
cards (ELSA Gloria Synergy 8MB); the 3DLabs PCI VX1 with 32MB will
also probably work (let me know if you want me to try it
specifically).
GOod luck.
