I have been given this card, and was wondering if it would be compatible with my motherboard? Thanks!

Would I have to have the driver disc for the 8500 GT? Thanks!

No, you'd be better off just getting the newest ones off the web anyway.

Sorry to interject at such a late stage in the procedings,
but what model was your old card? Might be just as good?

I built one a couple of months ago for a client, one problem I found and this is a weird one. Is that the video card was messing with the USB bus. I went back and updated the video driver and since they haven't had problems with their mouse. And yes they tried changing the mouse.
Other than that no problems, nice mobo. |

I was just using the on board graphics before. I will keep that little problem in mind when I go to install the card. Thanks fellas!
