new ati radeon 9550 problems help please

[mlacey]

hey all my friend just got a new ati radeon 9550 256 meg agp video card
it works fine untill he trys to play nhl 2006. He can get into the
game and adjust settings etc. he can even load the game once the camra
starts too zoom in for the face off the game crashes and hes booted
back to his desktop. So far i've tryed updating drivers and windows
update. I'm really at a lost here since it allows the game to load
i'm kinda confused for what may be causing it. The only thing i can
think that i havent tryed is turning his agp to 4x or 8x in the bios
depending what it is now. Can anyone help or anyone got any ideas i
can try anything would be good,

Thanks

Driver problem? Surf on to www.ati.com and grab the latest driver set
for the operating system used. Proceed like suggested, i.e. remember to
get _completely_ rid of the existing drivers before installing the new ones.
