I've just purchased a ATI Radeon (128 MB) PCI Graphics card. I've fitted it to the motherboard and loaded the software my computer hangs (windows XP) on booting. Hve done the usual things like getting the latest drivers for motherboard, Ati Catalyst etc. I've had to revert to my old graphics card which is intergrated into the motherboard (have gone into bios and told it to select PCI on booting etc). Has anyone any ideas or suggestions, or come acros this problem before and found a solution. I've done practically nothing else for the last 72 hours but try and get it to work.
Yours in hopeful anticipation

Did you uninstall the video drivers before installing the new card?
You switched to PCI as primary with onboard video, does this allow you to get Windows up and uninstall the old drivers? If so, Uninstall the drivers. Install the new card, switch back to AGP and disable the onboard video. Restart again. Then install the Catalyst.
What do computers and air conditioners have in common?
They both will work perfectly, until you open windows.

I also have the 9200SE. I had a lot of trouble with it at first. I updated the moboard drivers, got the latest from ATI and up dated my flash bios from my moboard manufacturer. Its working marginally now. However, smartgart says AGP texture acceleration not available but according toeverything I've checked the AGP bus is working fine so I'm assuming its a software glitch. Eitherway I have full hardware acceleration in FS02/04 but I'm not satisfied with the board. I upgraded from the 64DDR 7200 and there isn't much of an improvement but I did some research and discoverd that the 9200's board is virtually the same as the 7200's board. All they did was a software based increase of 50 mhz or so on the 9200's bus over the 7200. I am saving now to trade the 9200 up to a nVidia 256. the shop will trade up for $60 so I should have it soon. I am regreting not spending a little more and trading up to the 9600 in the first place.
AMD 2800xp on gigabyte vt600l k7 triton overclocked @ 2.3 ghz, 768 PC 3200, 128 DDR 6600GT AGP, 60 gig,5200 rpm maxtor, 160gig 7200rpm WD, Sony FD Trinitron 19
