Replacing a video card?

I bought a new video card and i would like to replace it. However, my old video card is included with motherboard (the motherboard came with it). How do i install a stand alone video card by disabling the old one? If you could provide me web sites that explains it well or could explain me, i would be appreciated. Thanks.|||Its easy to Install a video card! Since explaining will be confused here is the Video shows how to Install a Video card. You cant disable a old video card. You simply turn off your pc and take out the old Video card, and turn it back on when you finish install!

I hope this will help you! Good Luck!|||If you mean your video card is integrated into the motherboard, then all you have to do is install the new one and it will take over for the old one. You will find the need to install the drivers, but your computer will still function while you do it.|||you should still have a video agp card slot or a pci slot on your mother board. if you dont have one then you cant install it.. if yes then just insert it into the slot and start the computer... you dont need any hardcore tutorials for this... just plug and play.... insert the slot, start your computer.. if everything goes well you can have dual monitors.... :)



all the best....|||before buying a addon card. look at your mother board. and see if theres a AGP or PCI slot. the agp is further away from the back of the case, and usually a brownish colors itll always be at the upper/ middle area of the computer. pci is a white/creamish colored slot, match this three lettered acronym with the add on cards' box. also read your mother boards manual for possible diagrams of your motherboards capabilies.|||You'll first need to disable the onboard video in the system BIOS . This is done when the computer first boots and you get the option to enter 'setup' usually by pressing the delete or F12 key (watch the screen at boot up). Then find the correct area in the BIOS settings that has the onboard video and select to disable it. Save settings, shut computer off, install new video card, connect video cable from old location on motherboard to back of video card, start computer and let Windows start up - it will tell you new hardware found - when window comes up asking to install new hardware just hit cancel, let Windows finishing its start up, put CDROM in drive that came with video card, and follow the setup routine. Piece of cake.|||Disable the onboard sound in the BIOS, if you don't have BIOS setting for that, then disable it in "Device Manager".



UPDATED RESPONSE:

Why are twelve year old morons thumbs downing things that they have absolutely no understanding of? Go away!|||Well there are two ways you can do this in Windows or in your bios.



The easiest way is just to do it in windows. Go into my computer -> control panel-> system ->click on hardware tab-> right click the adapter you want to disable right click then hit disable.





Or you can disable it in your BIOS. Do this 1) restart your computer. 2) press Delete, F1 , F2, Shift + F2, or what button(s) it tells you to press after 1st beep. It will say when you restart press 'blah blah blah key(s)" to enter setup. 3) you will enter bios setup. 4) It should be under 'Onboard Configuration blah blah' or 'intergrated PCI blah blah'. 5) just look for onboard video card and change it to disable.
