I have just purchased a refurbished Leadtek Winfast A6600GT TDH 128MB AGP 8X from newegg.com which is really brand new to me. I installed it yesterday and everything went well while putting it in, but after i went through installing the video card I opened up the game BATTLEFIELD 2 and when I got to the menu it was stuttering and then froze and from there I had to restart my computer, I installed Splinter Cell (the game that came with the video card) and and it went through installation well but when it got to the end of installation a warning message came up and said the video card is to old or the drivers are to old which doesnt seem right because nuthing is old in my computer but I ignored the message and went on and played the game but it did the exact same thing as Battlefield 2 did. I have tried many options fixing this problem but none seem to do the trick, I have updated Windows, tried to download different drivers, etc. So if anyone could help me on how to fix this problem I would appreciate it, Thanks

My System Specs:

Dell Dimension 8300
Windows XP Home Edition
Intel Pentuim 4 CPU 3.00GHz
1024MB DDR SDRAM PC3200 Ram
NVIDIA GeForce 6600GT 128MB AGP
The driver i have installed is ForceWare 77.72

P.S At one point Battlefield 2 worked great but then it stuttered and then froze just like it did in the menu.
