Ati Radeon 9200 128mb graphic AGP 8x card anyone using it with vis

Has anyone tried using Vista Premium with Ati Radeon 9200 128mb Graphic card
can you please share your experience. Does Window Vista premium even run on
this card?

Since the 9100 and 9200 cards do not have built in DX9 support ATI would
have to write new Vista MCE compatible drivers that provide the DX9 support
in software like they did for MCE and AFAIK they have no intention in doing
so since they do not list any 9100 or 9200 chip drivers in their list for
VISTA support at their Website.

Well, Vista will not run with the full richness of all its functions
on such a card - but it will run.

E. g., I run - just for fun:-) - Vista RC2 b.5744 on a GeForce 2 MX440
AGP card with 64 MB VRAM - without Aero Glass, of course.

I have successfully tried out a Matrox G550, even a G400...

(Aero is running on my Radeon 9800 Pro 128 MB and on my GeForce 6200
128 MB.)
