The 9200SE is a pretty slow card. the 9000 and 9200 chips are identical except for the fact that the 9200 supports agp 8x. 9000's and 9200's should perform about the same. the 9200SEs are clocked slower and have half the memory bandwidth (64 bit vs. 128 bit) of a 9000 or 9200. I would expect them to perform about the same, with the AGP bus providing a slight performance boost. To be honest, I'm not sure why your windows performance changed as much as it did.
