tried searching, no help.. I got myself a Sapphire Radeon 9000 Atlantis video card with 128MB of RAM, and I installed it and booted up into Win XP, but for some reason, I can't get any drivers to work with it.. I tried the drivers that came with the card, I tried the drivers on the Sapphire website, and I've even tried the reference drivers posted by ATI.. I formatted my hard drive in hopes of getting somewhere with this, but the same thing happened: whenever I install the driver the machine reboots on its own and after the "Starting Windows XP" splash screen comes up I get a blank screen with 2 small dashes at the top of the screen... that's it... does anyone know why no driver is working? any help, please ;(

I'm running a Duron 1.2, and the BIOS hardware monitor reports a temperature of around 50-58 degrees celsius.. continuously rising. I cannot verify that it idles at this temperature because I don't want to risk frying the chip. Is this too high a temperature for this processor?

just what the title says,, I don't want to have to install all the updates every time I format.. so since it's poissible to make an Win2000 CD with the SP featured,, is this possible? if so, how? thanks in advance.. )
