Install the software from the CD that came with the card. If it didn't come with a software CD, check the manufacturer's web page for a download of the software

Bunch of fruitcakes, who apparently do not know how.
Go to START, then CONTROL PANEL, then SYSTEM, then HARDWARE, then DEVICE MANAGER, then click DISPLAY ADAPTER. Then you right click the devce you wish to disable. It should be the top one of the two listed. Then you reboot the machine. Go thru the whole thing again. This time there should be a RED X, on the device you disabled.
Then try loading the other driver on, then reboot again. Go thru the process again and this time you will right click the new driver and click update. You should do it in this order.
If you have any more problems just email me and be glad to help you grasshopper. lol
It never fails to amaze me when someone says , Yea, just disable it and then the machine will recognize the new card. DUH, that is why you asked the question cuz you do not know how to do it. Personally, you were too lazy to read the instructions that came with the new card. But either way, you got it done.

disable your onboard video card in the bios than it will find your new video card
