Try up[censored] the motherboard drivers before installing the Radeon drivers, lockup maybe due to an issue with your current m/b AGP motherboard drivers.

Did you unistall your first video card and if you have an on-board card did you disable it, if you did all that you might have to update your bios version or thats what I had to do with my 9250 ati raedon personally i like nvidia better

I grabbed this off the FIC web pages:
Q3: VIA chipsset (according to their web page) supports AGP 4X. FIC SD11 using this chipset support only AGP 2X (according to your web page). Why are the chip set & motherboard makers not exactly same in the support level?
A: FIC SD11 use AMD 751 as north bridge and VIA 686A (audio disabled) as south bridge, AMD751 support AGP 2X mode only.
IIRC the Radeon 9200 is AGP 8X.
I'm afraid it wont work with your motherboard
Mabey you could try to find a cheap older AGP 2X card on Ebay
