Systems cant afford new(er) card

so im stuck with this gf2 mx400 pos.....so i figured if its gonna be around a while i might as well make it better...i just d/l'ed rivatuner and overclocked core and memory by about 7mhz each(i know not much)....but i dont really care for gaming performance(i only play cs and mm1), im more into making videos and such and need quality...so does anyone know what to change in rivatuner or what drivers to download that can get me a lil better vid quality?....thanks for any help
p.s. this is on a p3 1gig running xp, 512mb sdr

o yea and for overclocking, just keep turing up the clocks till you get graphic corruption then turn back down 3-5 mhz. Dont worry you wont fry anything

Thats dangerous advice, I know someone who just fried a 9700 pro simply by turning up the frequency too much on the memory.

I also use the method described by Sam, however be aware of the possibility of destruction.
