Help, video card not working!

I have a Dell Dimension 2350 without an agp slot.  I got a pci video card.  A PNY Geforce FX 5500 and I disabled the intergrated graphics and installed the latest nvidia drivers and it wont work.  All I get is a black screen.

No, I disabled the onboard through device manager. So I'm supposed to uninstall the onboard right?

cloudx1111,

Did you hook the monitor cable up to the new graphics card?

And yes, disable the integrated graphics card in both the BIOS and then again in the device manager if it's still listed there after you disabled it in the BIOS.  I don't think you need to remove the drivers, but if that option is there in Add/Remove Programs then give it a shot.

You are the second person today I've read about here having problems with a new graphics card and the integrated graphics adapter.  Hopefully you won't get that integrated stuff again.  I had it a few years ago on an HP desktop and what a nightmare!
