# Request BIOS for Orchid Kelvin 64 VLBDaniel Markel 2015-05-28 12:15
I have to say this is the best homepage I have seen so far to get an overview about graphic cards history. Well done.

Unfortunately I have to contact you, because I am looking for the BIOS of an Orchid Kelvin 64 VLB.
The Bios available here on this site for download does not work out for me.

I can see that the collectors own a Orchid Kelvin MPEG VLB, wich has the BIOS of the Kelvin 64 VLB.
I do not know if the Bios of the Kelvin 64 PCI would also work that is also part of the collection shown on this page.

Would be great if you can help me to reactivate this old retro hardware.

Best regards
