You're better off buying an entire new card. Try something from the nVidia series. They're pretty cheap and have good memory. Most of the older nVidia cards still work on XP (even if they dont have that 'insurance' logo on 'em).

Here's the link to a driver for your video card. Even though it says it's for windows 95/98 it should still work with xp.

this sucks... Anakin told me the same thing, that 98 drivers worked fine for him on all his stuff, but whenever i try to use a 98 driver, it say's "this driver was not inteded for this operating system" but i can use win2k stuff fine, but win2k doesnt have the updated drivers that fix the card problem with my type of mother board... i cant beleive this!!! ARG, oh well, gives me an reason to get a GeForce 3, *grins* now i just need money
