AIW 7500 installed!

[PCHPlayer]

Well I was looking to get an ATI 7500 or 8500 when ATI went and released the AIW 7500. What caught my eye was the TV tuner. The AIW gave me a third TV in my house for $50 more than I would have paid for a 7500. Those of you that are married and have kids know what I'm talking about. The card installed without a hitch, but I wound up with driver issues with Win 98. I just could not get the TV tuner driver to work. Instead of reinstalling 98 I decided to upgrade to XP. Everything is working great now. The 2D is very good. At least as good as my old Voodoo 3. The 3D performance is also an improvement. Since I never play the newest games I will not miss the DirectX 8 features (I just bought No One Lives Forever). I have not messed around with the video capture or TIVO like capabilities yet. Bottom line, I am very happy with the purchase.
