Today I bought a new GFX card, an ATI Radeon 9250 128MB version (there's a 128 and a 256.) Anyways, I was reading the instructions on how to install, and it said if you have on on board GFX card, that you need to disable the video adapter. I know I have the on board GFX card, because I didn't see a card when I opened my case up to see where it would go. The only other thing in one of the PCI slots, was a card for a phone line (probably for internet?) and some other plug.
I did a little searching around on google, and figured out how to disable. I disabled it, then all of a sudden, my computer restarted. Note: the new card is not in yet. After it was done booting up, my screen resolution was really small, maybe 800 x 600. Anyways, I figured it worked, but it came to my attention after reading the instructions a little more carefully, that it the video adpater reinstalls itself, or something to that affect if you disable it?
My question is, how do I go about disabiling my video adapter, without it reinstalling itself?
My SPECS are, Dell Dimension 2400, Intel Celeron 2.4GHz, 256 RAM (soon to be 768 sometime next week hopefully.)
