SYMPTOMS
========

Windows 95 does not detect the STB Lightspeed Tseng 4000 W32p PCI video adapter
as a PCI card; it is placed in the Video section of the registry, not the PCI
section.

CAUSE
=====

According to STB, the early revisions of the W32p chip were not strictly PCI
compatible. As a compatibility measure, the video adapter does not report itself
as a PCI card. The performance of the video adapter is unaffected.
