Trouble with PCI graphics card.

[OM]

I'm having problems with a PCI graphics card.
I've put together a new PC with everything new apart from a PCI
graphics card.
The card is: Hightech ATI Radeon 9200SE 64MB PCI TV-Out DVI Retail Box
(link to manufacturer website:
http://www.hisdigital.com/html/home.php).

I've got a fresh installation of XP.
I get the dreaded blue screen after 5 minutes of activity.
The problem repeatedly occurs when trying to install the software and
drivers for the graphics card.
It's impossible for me to install the drivers.

Are problems with graphics cards a common symptom for blue screens?

(I have a Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe, SATA hard drive, Kingston memory.)

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

since the graphics card is not new...
are you using the drivers that are on the cd?
if so, they may not be the right drivers specific for XP.
go to the mfg's site and download the latest XP drivers
and give that a try
