Video Card
 

Well I got a ne video card and I couldn't get it to work. Then I read the instructions and it said I had to unhook or disable my intergrated video card. I cant figure out how to do that. Anybody have an idea. It plugs into a white slot if that helps.

You onboard video may be jumpered, where you have to move a jumper on the motherboard or you can disable it in the bios.

What plugs into a white slot? The integrated video wouldn't plug into anything.

BTW the color does not matter. You need to know the type of slot.

agp is brown, and has a little lever lock thingy towards the inside of the slot.

pci is just like a soundcard

just keep on hitting delete when computer is booting, the go throught menu and disable the on-board video card.

The new video card plugs into the white slot. I didn't see any jumper on it but I can check it again.

f1, delete, or maybe f2 will be the BIOS key. the window that first comes up when booting should display this.

Re: Video Card
 

depends on what mobo you have, i have 1 here thats green (msi) one thats orange (msi) and one thats black(asus).

Re: Video Card

you need to get into bios an disable onboard video, or set the jumper for a video card. most comsumer computers like hp dell etc have an option on startup to enter seip press f2 oe whatever and go thourgh the menuss
