Comment: I am having problems with my radeon 9200 graphics card. whenever I try to put the graphics card to higher quality settings. There are little lines and stripes showing up in games such as halo PC. Is it just because of a bad card or what? I was born Genius...Education Ruined me

Reply: (edit)i beg to differ. the 9200 is a budget card but it does have 128mb RAM and is not crap. i was able to play Doom 3 on mine (on lower but not lowest graphics settings) without overloading it. it was pushing it's limit but not quite exceeding it. one thing i did that helped was a Softmod driver to allow o/c and ATiTool. I also attached a fan to the heatsink to help cooling. anyway, my first advice for you, FoNzi, is first update the drivers. then if that doesn't work you can increase performance by downloading and installing the softmod drivers (google search is how i found them) and the latest version of ATiTool. use ATiTool to over clock the card, giving it a performance edge over 'stock' 9200s. Argue for your limitations and sure enough, they're yours.
