Got the Radeon 9200SE PCI (Sapphire brand) and it works great! Just had to disable the onboard graphics (with the BIOS set to AUTO--not Onboard) and install the new card. Then I turned the system on and it recognized the card. I was able to install the drivers, control panel etc too. Looks like the performance will be muuuuuuch better than the "Extreme" graphics (not surprisingly). That is all I can find, it appears it is not a true PCI2.2 compliant device, so choices are limited. ------------------------- The opinions expressed above do not represent those of Advanced Micro Devices or any of their affiliates.
