AGP or PCI card? If it is AGP it could be the problem is with the actual AGP driver (which is needed for the video card driver to install and work properly) and not the video card driver?

Did you uninstall the old driver before installing the newer? Also double check your WEI as it may need to be run again from the driver update (happens sometimes), before Aero will work.
