Try here:

http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/show.pl?target=patches/patch-access
Enter 109401-09 & follow the links to download the other.

Go here & uncheck the Solaris 7 patches & download & install the rest:

You should also check that you are at MU3 or later.

If all else fails try a "real" 32MB NVIDIA TNT2 card like the Dimond Viper
V770 (which is the one I use & which works quite well).

Apparently the only purpose of the M64 was to provide a low-cost 32MB card.
It only provides a 64-bit wide frame buffer, whereas the others use a
128-bit frame buffer.
