I would look at downgrading your video card drivers to be honest Govi. Given you're using a tnt2 - its highly doubtful that any driver above 23.12 or eve the 14.xx series is going to be beneficial for you.

All else fails, if you're running XP, run the game in compatibility mode for 2k or 98.

Here's the problem Govi:

MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
===========================
Windows 98, 98 Second Edition, ME, 2000 Professional, XP Professional, or XP Home operating system
Intel Pentium III (or compatible) CPU running at 700Mhz or higher
32MB DirectX 9 compatible video card (Geforce2 or higher) using a
supported chipset
128MB of RAM (256 MB using Windows 2000 or XP)
DirectX compatible sound card
Hard Drive Space: 450 MB free Hard Disk space, plus space for Direct X9 installation.
Sound: DirectX compatible Sound Card8X CD-ROM

Even though you've DX9 installed, your card isn't compatible with DX9 so it aint gonna work

You can get a GeForce FX5200 very cheap nowadays, and they're not bad cards at all

can fx5200 run any new games in dx9 mode , 5200 is pathetic , its beaten by gf4s in dx 8.1/ 8 mode , but 6200 is good.
or id suggest ati radeon 9550 or 9600 (which is gonna be really cheap).

@shyam335

FX 5200 runs Doom3 in medium detail at an average of 30FPS and it has full DX9 compatibility, so quit raising your eyebrows

I never said it was a high-end card, it's an ideal card for people who don't want to spend a fortune but want to be able to play all but the most demanding of games and don't mind compromising a bit of detail quality.

NFS underground runs fine on an FX5200 on anything above 1.5Ghz with 256Mb or more memory.

dx9 won't hurt your card at all, and doom3 won't run with that card, unfortunately
