well, if i don't remember wrongly, the original radeon was a bit slower than the geforce 2 mx. Also, at that times, the AIW models suffered greatly from reduced performance. you should have upgraded from a gf2mx to a radeon AIW to enjoy the extra features like enhanced tv out and tv-in. If you are not satisfied, you can always send it back where it came from, add a few bucks and get a geforce 3 ti 500 or geforce 4 ti 4200, or if you want ati, an 8500 (now i hear they are going to be called radeon 9100).

forgot to mention this, but if you are using the drivers from the cd, upgrade to catalyst 2.x and upgrade direct x to 8.1b
