X800 borked?

[DrJungle]

I believe my 16 pipe x800pro is borked after a long and trusty service. Was playing games all evening, woke up and now my games wont load. Problem is im still on AGP so limited as to what I could replace it with? what would be an equivalent card today?


Thanks

i know there a 9550 AGP 256MB going on members market quite cheap, might wanna check it out, tie you over till you get a better card.

I have removed the drivers with driver cleaner pro and then re-installed the latest. Also installed latest verion of Direct X. Plus removed and re-installed AA.
