I recently upgraded a machine with a Trident 9440 video card in it, to XP
from 98. I did a fresh install and the machine will run for a bit with the
card and the windows default driver and then the video will freeze until the
machine errs out.
I've searched the net to find that the Trident 9440 is incompatible with XP,
and no one has made drivers past WinNT. Any ideas on how I might fix this or
where I might find drivers?
