>>>changing the drivers for your onboard video to standard pci graphics adapter<<<

How exactly can this be done? I tried going to the display driver properties, and than clicked 'update driver', and standard display types was NOT shown......Can u try to give more detail??

doh, i was thinking about windows 98 for some reason, with xp i don't think you can do this..... try just disabling the device in device manager, shutting down the pc, and installing the ati card and see what happens

Yep, tried that.....installed card and it froze. Never got past the boot up logo. Comp probably doesn't like the fact that 2 video cards are installed and can't decide which 2 go with, so it freezes. There's got to be a way to get this new card installed......my last resort option is to take it to the store where I purchased the card and let THEM install it for a small fee......but I'd like to exhaust ALL other options 1st...

P.s.- Why aren't you on messenger? It'd be easier for me to talk this out in real time instead of waiting for posts.

hey folks,

Someone told me to go with Nvidia Geforce 2 for a video card, so I took the PC to compusa and had them put that in instead. They said its a MUCH MUCH better and faster card than the ATI Raedeon card I was going to have put in. The technician guy said ATI Raedeon's are nothin but trouble anyhow.....

Thanks for all of everyone's input and help.
