    It might say this if you installed the 64bit version (x64)

    That makes sense as newer Ati vid drivers always give me a pain on a fresh install . I have to work backwards with my old drivers first ,as I get the dreaded these drivers are not certified or compatible with this version of Windows XP . My Vid card then reverts back to generic win agp drivers .
