Perry,
I don't know that the Windows 95 CD will be of help, but I found Trident's
page for the card:
http://www.tridentmicro.com/drivers/download/tgui9440.html
The Windows 95 driver is here:
http://www.tridentmicro.com/drivers/download/tgui_tvga/w95-9440.exe
Hope that helps. Let me know if this fixes the problem.
Harold
