Used: try ebay. You can still get a decent new video card from somewhere like newegg.com for a decent price. If the machine is freezing after three video cards, then it's probably something unrelated to the video card. Also, Linux video card drivers tend to suck badly. Trying every card in existance might not be as effective as simply obtaining a new machine with some kind of Intel Integrated graphics. The Intel graphics suck (read: are über slow), but the drivers themselves rock and rarely crash on me. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Linux Users Group.
