Video Card and/or Star Wars: Galaxies game compatibility with XP Home

Guest

Recently I installed the game Star Wars: Galaxies on my 1.5 ghz machine, and an ATI Radeon 9200SE video card to play it with. Within a week, Windows refused to start because the windows\system32\config\system file was corrupt or missing. I reinstalled windows, the video card driver, and the game, as well as Norton Antivirus 2003, along with the most recent updates for all of them. I did not install anything else. i did scans with norton and checkdisk and found no problems

now, less than a week later after that, and some odd bugs discovered with the game involved with quitting out of it, windows had the same system file problem when i powered it up. i checked with the microsoft knowledge base and followed directions for copying the backup system file from the windows/repair folder. i rebooted, windows began loading, then went to a blank screen when the blue welcome screen pops up, and then rebooted again. so it's stuck in a loop

i have a feeling the issue is compatibility with the game or card. any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Check for updated video drivers also check for any game
patches this could be a known issue with the game. good
