I am not positive but I think anything after ati9200 is supported but not before. actually most major video card with hardware graphic accelerator and at least 64 MB released in last couple year are supported if you can find the right video driver for Vista.
Btw there a place to check for compatibility of your pc before starting to install!

I don't believe Vista damaged your hardware. Try reinstalling XP. "Pedro Barradas" wrote in message

I'm not sure what that means "doesn't start". I'm sorry, as I am trying to help.
When you boot the machine, do you see the manufacturer's logo (like Dell) and the boot messages?
