    Upgrading Graphics Card
    Upgrading graphics card from 256 ATI to 512 nVidia Geforce. How do I install the new card when I have only one AGP slot.

    Tried installing new card but monitor is blank so can't see to install new drivers. Tried installing new drivers with old card onboard new drivers will not install.

    Instr say uninstall old drivers remove card install new card & run new driver install but that seems a bit off as having uninstalled old drivers if the install goes wrong I'm stuffed.

    Any ideas welcome?
