 should support the vesa driver just fine. I have had or tested all of
 those components and they all work just fine with haiku.

 I don't see any plug and play bios options in my bios (phoenix awards
 bios)

 I'm trying to get haiku to boot off a usb drive, yes but I don't want to
 install it on this machine... (at least not yet)

 I've tried all of those safe options with no progress
