There could be a conflict between your agp card and your built-in card. Check if it's installed, and if it is, disable it. Like Koffy said, check for hardware conflicts.
There could be IRQ conflicts. Go to Start, Programs, Accessories, System Tools, System Information, Hardware Resources, IRQs and check for conflicts.

yep i checked for IRQ conflicts and they were all good
iv tryed the cd on my mates comp and it works fine
as for reinstalling iv done everything x3, the only thing i havent tryed is another version of windows (unable to get a copy of 98 or me)
as for my agp im going to buy a new power suply to try and make make it more stable...........
my power output is
max output 125watt......i never realised how crap it was
+3.3v = 14amps
+5v = 20amps
amd recomends at least +3.3v @ 28amps for the XP1800+
thanks guys
