This is precisely the symptoms I saw whan I had my Expert 3D-Lite in my 
Blade.
iirc, the last message I saw on the console was "Jumping to <some address>"

If you know the model of video card (many of them display that in the 
top left curner during POST) we could let you know if it's known to not 
work.  What it seems to boil down to is that if it is a 3Dlabs based 
card, it will not work.
