S3 Diamond Viper II Z200 - Savage2000 - The Refuge
 
This page was made to assist Diamond Viper II Z200 graphics card owners in keeping their card running. Technical support on the drivers and BIOS was cancelled by S3 and Diamond - they even don't keep the old driver and BIOS archive up. As you can see my list is incomplete. If you happen to have a newer driver or BIOS (for the BIOS: older versions are also welcome!!) then you can download from this site please send me an e-mail with either a download link or another way to get it from you. I cannot provide you with more support than what is on this site. If you are unable to install the drivers you should read this or go to savagenews or search a solution yourself.
 
As I discovered that none of the links and websites I previously  used to link to don't work anymore I have decided to host the most recent files/drivers myself*+. If you need any other version, please feel free to e-mail me.
