Gigabyte Technology Radeon 9200 SE R925E Graphic Accelerator - Dr. Strangelove - 04.11.2008

Hello peeps!

Apologies for the very long title, but this afternoon I was hanging up shirts in the closet, and, lo and behold! Underneath all the crap, I found a box called "Gigabyte Technology Radeon 9200 SE R925E Series Graphic Accelerator".

I have no clue what the heck to do with this!
Inside I have a hefty chip of some sort (must be the thing)
I have a couple of the drivers (just a bunch of CDs)
I don't have the S-video cable it says it came with.

So, maybe the cable won't be a major problem. Those can be found at any computer store, right?
I do not know the card this one is supposed to replace.
Tell me where to look in Device Manager, and I will gladly respond.

Although, under "Display adapters" I have an ATI RADEON XPRESS 200.
I'm not sure if that is in the same category of device, so please point me in the right direction to see which card I currently have.

Maybe this will be the answer for my crappy water graphics!

sounds like a really old old graphics card, the one that my mom's laptop has (9000)

:oops:

Hey Dr. Strangelove

I had a look at this on google breifly - its 4:45am after all! I think the one you have installed in onboard - as in 'built into the motherboard', which is never going to give best performance. However it appears to be newer than the one you found... I'm no expert on graphics cards- especially ATI ones so I'm not sure how this would pan out performance-wise. Unless you get better advice than mine (not difficult!) It might be worth plugging the one you found in - installing the drivers, and just see what the performance is like...
Alternatively, There are some people around these here parts who seem to know alot about about hardware (big-silver-hotdog springs to mind) I'm sure he wouldn't mind advising you - a PM maybe?

oh - you don't need the s-video cable, unless your planning on plugging it into your TV
