Which card?
Well, as far as the computer goes, it is an Athlon XP3200+, 1 gig of Kingston PC3200, 500watt power supply, among other things that I don't think would be taken into consideration for this. But any, I was offered to sell the FX5500 for the same amount I paid for it ($30). Instead of taking the...- Doodaddy

Which card?
I recently got a PNY GeForce FX5500. I had just RMA'd a card at Newegg (ATI 9600SE). They no longer carry that card, so they've given me the option of being refunded market price or a different card of their choice. I can't decide which of the two cards I'd rather have. Fx5500 -...- Doodaddy

Loading drivers for OS on a SATA.
I'm installin XP Pro on my SATA Hard drive. Ok, I have the RAID drivers on the floppy. My floppy is in working condition and my keyboard is recognized and works. Some reason when it says to press F6 to load third party SCSI or RAID drivers, it doesn't respond and just acts as if I didn't press...- Doodaddy
