Video Card is no good?

I have a "Diamond AMD Radeon HD 4350 512MB DDR2" and XP is the OS. In Device Manager I have a yellow? Under "Other Devices" Video Controller and nothing for Display adapters. I installed the drivers from the DVD and all the drivers from the motherboard DVD and even had the Internet take a look and so I'm thinking this is just a bad card?
 
Do this so we can identify what the unknown device is. Go into device manager, right click on the device and click on properties, click on the details tab and give me the 4 digit vendor and device id numbers. All I need are the digits after ven_ and dev_
 
After spending hours with this cheap video card I just took my NVIDIA GeForce GT 240 - 1 Gig video card and put it in this cheap computer I'm building for old games and it works much better like about 10 times better and I'm taking that $10 video card back to Frys and I'm getting a Diamond AMD HD7850 2GB for my big computer. Thank you for the reply
 
Not exactly sure the point in having an old computer specifically for old games. Almost all old games should still work just fine on Windows 7. Some may need an emulator or compatability mode but it'll still work in most cases. Makes sense to just save for one better computer and use it for everything. I'm sure you have other reasons but figured I'd say that. Not sure Diamond is the best choice in a video card manufacturer either.
