You can try XF86Config or Xconfigurator to reconfigure your X setup, but

I remember having problems getting RH9 to recognize a couple of video cards. 

My advice would be to shop one of the computer fairs listed from

www.marketproshows.com

Go get an old $5 s3virge card or something else old and generic, plug that into your PC, and redo your install
