Well thats inconvenient. :shock: Oh well. What I recommended was the Nvidia 9600Gt. I use this card and have ran XP, Vista, Linux, and Mac OSX. They all work great and the card is compatible with all. ;)

All the brands will do the same thing. Some may have a higher over clock but other then that they all are the same in my opinion. ;)
