Thanks again for the Tut LB.
Quick question... my card didnt come with any screws. or indeed anywhere to screw it in! it just sort of sits in the PCI-E slot, seems to be secure... but im worrying about it nowDo they always come with screws?
The cards themselves usually dont, but there should be a small hole in the top of the bracket where it sits on the case.

ohhh... thats why it doesnt need screws... I have a clamp type thing that locks into place. I think thats doing the job instead
Thanks for your helpI've given you some rep
Now I just have to figure out why they gave me a DVI to VGA convertor when it already has a VGA slot AND a DVI slot.
Good info :)
I like to disable onboard video after I install the card, but that's just me. Regarding, using both onboard graphics and a graphics card? My experience has been that it depends on the mobo. Mine won't.
Ok I tried installing a ATI graphics card to my computer and I left the video on auto since it didn't have an option to disable it. I turn it on and all I see is a black screen and I can hear the HD after a while loading the OS. What is going on with the card? I also disabled the on-board video from the device manager.
