Summary: Easy install, works great.
Review: Based on other reviews I read, I was worried about compatibility with XP but installation was easy. After uninstalling the drivers for my old graphics card (choosing not to restart, but rather manually shutting down and restarting with the ATI Radeon 7500 in its place) setup was simple.

I do not have an AGP and this is a great card for my system. It replaced a 16MB NVIDIA and the improvement is remarkable. It doesn't have the same memory capacity as cards available for an AGP but video and rendering look great with the 64 MB DDR.

This was a wise purchase.

Summary: Decent
Review: Being a systems builder i always test cards before selling to customers. Stay clear of the ATI name. ATI boasts great things as well as tech support. You can have all the tech support you can pay for. Customers expect the best and will not be happy when the ATI products do not work as stated. Try tech support, get through the endless fix this and update that and when the product they sell still does not work you will just get tierd and go buy another product. Sometimes the headache is not worth the hassle. BEWARE

Summary: Frame Rate Extremely Slow
Review: Graphics looks OK, but playback of movies were terrible. The frame rate was so slow the screen would jump and flicker continously. I do not recommend this card for any purpose.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Decent
Review: This is a decent video card. It really isn't fast enough to run current games at their full potential. But for basic computing, older games without high end graphics and internet browsing, this will more than meet your needs. The big problem I had was updating the drivers. You have to uninstall the previous driver first, and then install the updated version. But I ran into problems with Win XP not loading it's own driver for the card in order to bring anything up on the monitor until I could install the new drivers. So I would have a blank screen. So unless it really is needed, I would recommend leaving the updating alone as it is really a chore.
