Im just glad one of my options were right LOL.
I hope you havent gone out your way to upgrade just for a PCI express graphics card - AGP was tested against PCI X in micromart and all that was gained in performance was very minute about a 1 frame rate gain against AGP on most popular games.
As for service pack 2, did you install any drivers prior to SP2 - sometimes a conflict can happen (had graphics drivers completely corrupted before).
I always now install in this order XP,SP2,Chipset drivers, Graphics, Audio then the rest (never had any problems since doing so

)
