I'm having major problems with this card. When windows is set to use beyond the basic accelerator fxns, I encounter random lock-ups. Installing new drivers seem out of the question with lack of support for my non-Diamond card. Any tips on how I canmaximize this card?

try going into your bios and reducing your agp speed. 4x to 2x or even 1x.
next, if you have a card in your pci slot next to your agp slot, move it if you can. those two slots share an irq and sometimes they interfere with each other.
last, makesure that puppy is staying cool. try running for a day without your case cover on and see if that helps. if it does, it may be a cooling problem.
