Radeon 9600 Problems

    Can anyone help?. I have an ABIT NF7-M motherboard running XP pro which has all the updates. I have a Radeon 9600 graphics card which I have used before in this computer with no problems but I have had to do a complete fresh install of XP and all the drivers. I have uninstalled the graphics drivers for the motherboard Nforce chip and the monitor works using the Radeon.
    When I try to run Medal of Honour, it says that I need a direct X enabled graphics card, which is what I have. Also when I enable the Radeon 9600 Pro in my device manager, it runs the start of the game then it freezes before switching the screen off. When I turn the screen on it just says that there is no signal but the game is still running as I hear the sound!
    It is probably something simple that I am missing but I would appreciate any help I can get. By the way Device manager shows no conflicts. Thanks.

    also, is the game resolution set higher than your monitor can display? that happened to me a couple times by accident.
