I have an Aopen PA3000+ AGP graphics card (at least that's what it says on the card) and when I load the drivers I get a message saying 'this driver is not written for this product, are you sure you want to use it ?'.
I'm trying to find out what the card really is and have all the product numbers and serial numbers.
Anyone know of a website where I can enter these into a search to establish the actual details of the card ?

Thanks Mesich.

Unfortunately, the card doesn't list an FCC code !

That particular card is an Nvidia TNT2 agp card, you can download the drivers for it from Nvidia.com. they have one driver that is made for all their cards. when that error message pops up, just click on yes to continue and it should work just fine.

I'd bet you've got an nVidia TNT2 M64 -

The error message is an annoying little feature provided by Microsoft. It just means it thinks it has a better driver for the hardware. You should be able to install any set of drivers for the card.
