Man still struggling with video cards ...

Took back that PCI 9600 and now I have the ATI HIS radeon X1300 AGP.

I did a full reinstall of XP which seems to have made the system more stable and it's running smooth but with the clear lack of functioning video card (refreshes in wave etc).

When I install the ATI Radeon software though the card fails and the whole system becomes unstable until I uninstall again.

I have the service pack 2 installed and the net framework 2.0 as well.

Any ideas?

And failing that ... anyone recommend a good shop to drop the thing off at with a quick turnaround?
