Graphics cards for G4/Jaguar

Hi

I've got a 2 year old G4 (AGP graphics and gigabit ethernet model). Since
upgrading to OS X 10.2 Jaguar after a few minutes of use the Mac just
restarts without warning. This appears to be caused by my Formac Proformance
3 graphics card - Formac have stitched everyone up by refusing to write OS X
drivers and since 10.1.4 the mac just restarts at random. I'm quite happy
with the ATI card in the AGP slot to drive my main screen but I need an
extra PCI card to run my second display. Any recommendations anyone? I guess
sticking with ATI would be best as the driver support is built in to the OS
but I'm struggling to find a card cheaply here in the UK. Would any old ATI
card work, such as the one that came with a blue and white G3/400 ?

Any help appreciated.

Tim Allen.
