I use this video card and have no problem @ 1024 X
768. I think it failed beacause you picked 3D mode. I
tried 1 time and got blank screen like you got. If you
choose automatic install, The program will let you
test graphic card at each mode.
Remember: do not try 3D mode @ Linux-Mandrake 7.2. It
doesn't improve display quality.
