The bitch of a problem with the 5200 is that it's hard to know which drivers to use. The current version being 71.84, but that causes masses of problems with many things. Most people roll back to 66.93 (or 66.94 for 9x systems) in such cases, but those drivers cause problems as well, especially if you're trying to run in 800x600 resolution.
That said, the next card I'll buy will probably be an Nvidia, just one that wouldn't cause so much grief.

Interesting. I suppose I could go with an ATi instead. Really, anything with Composite and S-Video out is all I'd need. Brand matters only as much as how well it's gonna last me. Now, composite + s-video + dvi would be superb, but I haven't found one yet. It seems to be either composite + dvi, or composite + s-video. Ah well, it's a niche item anyway, and I could always buy one of each and swap as needed. ;)
