Question Solved: Which video card am I?
I am a PCI card, or alternatively an AGP card that can withstand 88 MHz AGP bus.
I have a high quality analog output.
I am not a GeForce.
I am passively cooled.
I have 16-128 megabytes of dedicated video memory.

Which video card am I?
Do I exist?

Thanks.
p.s. Tried Hercules 3D Prophet 9000 and it would not POST on my system. This was the 64 MB PCI version of the card. My motherboard is the AOpen AX6BC. Really I'm just looking for something better than the Matrox Millennium G400 which is happily chugging away on my overclocked AGP but has quite bad drivers under Linux and no 3D performance whatsoever.

I am ATi Radeon 9200 AGP, but you must run me at AGP 1x rate

What a strange coincidence.
I've just taken a 9200L/SE (128Mb) out of a machine I'm upgrading to Windows 7 (no decent drivers that work and I have a Geforce 5500 that does)
It will be going on Ebay tomorrow.

Thanks for the heads up, DaveBurnett. Unfortunately my answer came because I now have the experience to back it up (I already bought and tried said card).
