My old computer is stating to have trouble running some of the newer software. In particular, I am getting free training in SolidWorks to use when Mentoring Highschool teams in First Robotics and also Underwater Robotics Competition. Unfortunately, SolidWorks only works on Windows, and my Windoze partition is indeed gettey VERY slow and sleepy. SolidWorks initially would not run becasue the video drivers were out of date. I have fixed so that it will run, but is still VERY slow. I already have all RAM slots full, so I would have to pull and replace, and the best I could do is double the RAM from 2G to 4G. But a newer video card than my old ATI Radeon X300 might speed up the graphics intensive CAD program. Can anyone recommend an inexpesnive (under $100 and preferably in the $40 to $60 range) PCI-E16 video card that will have both Linux drivers (32bit and 64bit) and also Windoze XP drivers (32bit and 64bit)?
I know that ATI has great support for Linux, but most of their cards are quite expensive. Any specific sugestions? Mike
