Just curious, if you managed to solve your issue with ATI Radeon Xpress 200. I am a beginner and planning to install on my MSI-7184, AMD64 3400+, ATI Radeon Xpress 200 machine. I found first two hardwares compatible but ATI Radeon Xpress 200 nowhere to be found.

I just don't want to get stuck up after investing so much of time.

Yes, I have found some that do all but sound for this chipset.

Just google the file, I think I got from InsanelyMac forums. Google: Drives_For_X200m

I cannot get my soundcard to work (Conexant AC-Link) as of yet, but video is good, use the Katana drivers and instructions in the zip file I referenced above.

Sorry I didn't notice if you were using a laptop or desktop, I am on a laptop. Compaq Presario R4000.
