For future reference, the Windows Compatibility Center is a good place to check compatibility of hardware: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/com...s/default.aspx. And here is some information about updating drivers: Update drivers: recommended links.

Regarding Windows 7 and Radeon 3650 AGP - I have the same card and it is now recognized as a Vison Tek HD 2600 XT. In Windows XP it was recognized in the Device Manager correctly. I have tried about a dozen different drivers up to and including the latest one released just the other day. I have not got an answer from ATI amidst several attempts to get Customer Support. They have a reputation for not supporting cards made by other manufacturers such as Sapphire, however. I have posted this same issue in other forums, and while there are many who have the problem, so far, no one has the solution. My computer is a Dell Precsion 360 with 2GB RAM on board sound, 200 GB HDD and two external 500 GB drives.
Bearet, welcome to the forums.
Is this the driver you used with your card,
Catalyst AGP Hotfix - Radeon HD 4000 Radeon HD 3000 and Radeon HD 2000 Series AGP products
or was it the regular Cataylst 10.6? If it was the 10.6 you need to use the above as there is no support for the AGP cards in the regular driver. It also doesn't help that you're using a computer with an unsupported chipset in it (Intel 875), and basically stuck using whatever default AGP driver Windows installs. Problem with not having a proper AGP driver is that the video card drivers can and usually don't work as they should. This isn't something that ATI can fix as the chipset is from Intel, and Intel declared it "end of life" quite a while ago.
