My god, your typing is really hard to read, it gives me headache.. - Did you search for the latest drivers of the Graphics card?

[Carhartt]

You have to download all drivers if you re-installed Windows.

Can you please type normal. I know it's tough for you but try, please.

[LillMumin]

Watti........

have.......

u.......

installed.......

SP2.....

now?....

hihi....

Well its something with the 3D Options.... I think i got it!! Have u installed DIRECT X???? :D

[Metrapoler]

Have u installed DIRECT X?

I think the setup of Sa will ask you if you want to install Direct X now, or not. And when watti pushed the button "no" there ... 

ok, here is the Nvidia Driver site:
Offical Nvidia driver site

the first thing to do when installing XP is to install all service packs if you plan to. don't ever, EVER delay it.

Your SA installation could be FUBAR, try a complete reinstall of it.

Also, AC97 = onboard sound used in quite many motherboards to date. It's ancient, but does the job.
