Do I need a new MB for a Radeon 9500 pro?

I have an Epox 8k7a and I want to upgrade my video card. I am wondering if I need to upgrade my Mother board at the same time.
 
Craig, for future reference it's helpfull to list your system spec before people can give you advice. 😉
 
Epox 8k7a
Athlon XP 2200+
Windows XP
Crucial 512 MB PC2100 DDR
Current VC- Radeon 64MB VIVO

Thanks for the advice.
 
Thanks for the info. You guys are awesome. I've had this MB for about 2 years now. How do I know when its time to upgrade?
 
Whle I'm asking, does anybody know if a Video Card can affect gamepad operation while playing games? I can't use a USB gamepad (and that's all I have) with games that use Direct x 8.1. Some sort of software issue, but I haven't found anyone that know hpw to resolve this.
 
You might want to go to the Video Card's official website and ask them on a possible solutions. Or, you might want to check out the gamepad's Official site. They should know how to relieve you of this problem.
