Hi, I just got a new video card its a diamond stealth s80 w/128mb, and now I can't play any music,movies,or my cpu doesn't play sound.
I updated all the drivers for it and everything, and in fs2004 before it boots up I get an error message saying fs2004 has to close, but the simulator runs anyway......I did get big fps gains from 3-6 fps to 15-30 fps, but no sound and the gauges don't work
so does anyone know whats wrong?
please help

That video card is a radeon 9200 gpu.
It's not really a very good card at all, take it back and tell the dealer it's not compatible with your system and get a better card.
I don't know why you are having the probs you describe, but try to get a decent mainstream card, it may solve your woes.
Mainboard: Asus P5K-Premium, CPU=Intel E6850 @ x8x450fsb 3.6ghz, RAM: 4gb PC8500 Team Dark, Video: NV8800GT, HDD: 2x1Tb Samsung F3 RAID-0 + 1Tb F3, PSU: Antec 550 Basiq, OS: Win7x64, Display: 24" WS LCD

I really don't want to return it, because it was only $60 and I don't have enough money to set aside for my comp. to get anything that cost more than $100
