321061 2005-02-03 07:33:00 it de[pends on your board but you should be ok.

the BIOS finds the new card and turns off the onboard one.

to be sure of waht to do, check your motherboard hand book.

321062 2005-02-03 08:29:00 ive done the exact same thing recently holden, i firstly removed all drivers concerning my intergrated graphics because the first time i had a driver clash or something, then i went into bios and turned the intergrated graphics off, inserted card and booted up and it was fine.
