it shows windows loading on the new card but wont show windows just a black screen so i put it on the onbaord one and then i see desktop.
this is before doing anything but instaling card and rebooting


so then i disabled onboard and get the same reaction this time onboard video is off and the new card does nothing except show boot up.

When windows makes the loading noise it makes it is a black screen from then on out.
what do i do now.

I can not get any picture whatsoever. (onboard is off) and geforce shows nothing but boot up.

PLEASE HELP

Im blind ont hat computer now save for bootup.

so the new card shows video up untill the windows boot screen, what kind of card is it, agp, pci, -- make sure that the bios is set to the type of card u are using.


btw, to enter the bios, its either -- del, f1, f2 or esc

Sounds like bad refresh rate setting to me. Boot in safe mode (VGA mode), go to display -> advanced, monitor and set the refresh rate to 60hz.
