Ed has mentioned updated drivers for the cheap Mystique (pronounced
'mistake'). You should have sprung for the Millenium at least. As for
the ATI, it is a good card with a dual page mode for speed, which some
programs choke on. For this reason they have this switch for single page
mode to turn it off. It worked just fine with mine. Sorry to see your
problem with Turrett's syndrome. ;-)
