Is there a decent alternative? I have gone right off nVidia (possibly unfairly?) after all the messing about and complete system lockups (yes, everything, not just X) which have occured since trying to use any kind of driver.

Are the GeForce2MX's any good. I really want to play Sin and SoF, and my current graphics hardware can't cope with xlock!

Cheers
