My computer was built for me yesterday, abit nf7-s, xp 2500+, power colour radeon 9800 pro, seagate s-ata drive

i formatted the drive and installed windows last night.

however i am having difficulty installing the graphics card and motherboard chipset drivers.

I can install either one or the other but if i install both i can't log into windows and get a black screen. i have to log into windows in safe mode and system restore back to before the items where installed.

Can anyone tell me what the issue is?

i thought it was perhaps i didn't remove the vga drivers already installed and that there was a conflict? however there is nothing for me to remove in the add/remove program menu. just uninstalled devices in the device manager.

i am installing the graphics card using the supplied cd, should i perhaps try to install with cats 3.8?

also don't know if this matters but i have an audigy sitting in one of the pci slots incase i decide to install it?

help appreciated
