Thanks... my card is working right now but i never was able to use the cd to install the driver.. the card just started working when i downloaded the ATI catalyst thing from the internet.. Am ok or should i makes sure i install the stuff on the cd?
Ok i connect the video card and start up my computer.. i put the ati cd in and begin to install it.. when it starts to install it gives an error message that says, "Try to setup your display adapter with a standard VGA driver before running setup." What does this mean??
