VGA card????

Question

How can i know my VGA CARD, AUDIO CARD and how to install it

Answer 1

Assuming you have Windows XP, the easiest way to figure out what kind of VGA and Audio cards you have is to:
1. click start
2. click control panel
3. click the button on the left to switch to classic view if you have not already done so.
4. double click System
5. click on the tab labeled Hardware
6. click the Device Manager button
7. Now you see a list of ALL devices in your computer. VGA cards are typically listed under the "Display Adapters". The audio card will be listed under "Sound, Video and Game Controllers" (note, you can sometimes find your graphics card listed here).
8. double click the individual names of hardware devices to see more information about them.

to install new cards:
1. turn off your computer using the main power button.
2. in the back of the computer should be a master on/off switch. turn this switch to off (off is usually indicated by an O and on is a |
3. for an upright standing tower, facing the tower gently tip the tower onto its side (to YOUR right).
4. open the face up side of your computer (consult manual for more information as different case designs are opened differently. look for screws in the back that are holding the panel on, buttons on the bottom/top of the case, latches on the rear of the case etc.)
5. Remove the old card or port cover for the PCI/AGP/PCI-E slot you are going to use.
6. Insert the new card into the open slot (it will only fit one way and the card should come with ample instructions and diagrams on how to perform this)
7. replace the the tower cover
8. stand your computer upright and turn the master on/off switch to on.
9. turn on the computer with the power button in front.
10.When windows boots, it should detect and install new hardware automatically. Install the drivers that came with your cards REGARDLESS of whether or not windows installed the new hardware by itself.
11. when installing a new graphics card you will notice that the desktop resolution is WAY out of wack (it will be 640X480). This is due to the standard fail safe video driver being used. The low color usage and low resolution is normal. Install the drivers that came in the box and everything should return to normal after a restart.

Answer 2

VGA Card is a short form of Video Graphic Accelerator Card. Today's VGA and Audio Card is easier to use. When you buy a VGA and Audio Card, firstly you should install them at the mother board and then just install their driver. That's all.

Answer 3

for the VGA , if it is installed you will right click on the desktop select properties then select settings , for the installed audio card , click right click on my computer select properties then select hard ware then select device manager you will find it under the audio components

If the cards are not installed , and you have a catalog's probably you will find everything in the catalog's .

if you don't have a catalogs then open your PC look at the black chips you will find the model and the type of your VGA

to install the software , just search for the software on the Internet make sure that it is like what is written on the black chip on the card then just press install . follow instruction and restart
