Dale, How do you mean it doesn't work so well? Everything looks good in the 3Ddiag output as I have the Radeon QD as well, but with 64mb. I have very nice 3d in all the games and screensavers, etc. Can you play TuxRacer or use any of the GL screensavers? What about agp? Have you set that to use 2 or 4 speed?
