Installing Video Card
I just installed a ATI Sapphire 4830 DDR3 Video card.My motherboard has on
board video,ATI 4200??

I booted up was still using on board video.I uninstalled ATI drivers and
software.The screen blinked and changed to 88x600,looked like safe mode.It
said to restart.I booted up and no video.I tried onboard and new card.I know
it is booting into windows.I can hear the music .
I tried getting into bios,will not go to bios.Now the screen probably is
asking do I want to restart windows or Bla Bla Bla.

What can I do to get some video back .I do not care if it is onboard Just
before I deleted drivers I looked in Device manager
and did not see the new card.Probably because of drivers not installed??It
should of shown The PCI-2 slot.No??

I am running Vista Home Premium 64 Bit
Asus MoBO
Phemnom11 Quad Core 3.2 GHz
8 Gigs of DDR3 memory
Plextor DVD/CD/RW
Blue Ray DVD
750 watt Power Supply
2 Western Digital Black Caviar Hard Drives 750 gigs

I really appreciate any assistance.
If I clear Cmos,maybe I could get into bios but would that help???

Thanks in Advance
Doug

Re: Installing Video Card
You need to get into your BIOS to change it from using the Onboard graphics/
Different MOBOs use different keys to get into your bios.
Watch the Bios post screen very closely to see which key you need for yours
it could be the delete key or the F2 key or another key.

Re: Installing Video Card
It is not HP. I built the system.



Rosewill RP600V2-S-SL 600W ATX12V v2.01 SLI Ready Power Supply
Phenom11 Quad Four running at 3.2GHz
2 Western Digital Black Caviar Hard Drives
Plextor CD/RW DVD/RW
LITE-ON Black 4X BD-ROM 8X DVD-ROM 32X CD-ROM SATA Internal 4X Blu-ray
Reader
8 GiGs of G Skill Memory
LG W2353V-PF Black 23" 2ms(GTG) HDMI Full HD 1080P Widescreen LCD Monitor
Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
ASUS M4A785TD-V EVO AM3 AMD 785G HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard

The system was running fine until I tried to install new card.

Thanks
Doug

Re: Installing Video Card
you have to set the bios to use ether pice or vga so that the bios can tell the mother board what to use .

or try to disable it in the control panel and system and look for it there .
