Game Confusion

I was running a game called Worms Armageddon , installed a new graphics card (Raedeon 9200se) everything worked fine , then suddenly the game keeps crashing out . Ive uninstalled and reinstalled same results.All I get is it appears to be accessing the disc the screen goes black then back to the desktop , except the resolution is now messed up.I've tried everything I know , thought I'd pick your brains.Thanks for any help in advance.

Which Operating System? Which version of Directx is installed? Could be Directx needs updated with that card.

i would suggest that as Murf has said, update the DirectX to make it work with your card. although i am baffled as to why the game played to start off with and now doesn't. i had a similar problem with an EA game but when i updaded DirectX the game ran.
