Alright I done it now..

I have two home computers.. One is mine and one is my girlfriends and she had the good graphics card in hers and I had the crappy one.. I switched hers out with mine and got mine to work fine.

It's a different story with hers though I put the graphics card that was in mine into hers and installed the drivers with the vga cord in the onboard video.. after I installed the drivers I disabled the onboard video card and hooked the vga cord into the graphics card and now when I boot it up it shows the windows loading screen and then it goes black and stays there..

I got it! Lol I just plugged the graphics card into another slot.. I'm on her computer right now no need to research

Another slot?!?! What kind of card is it? There is usually one slot for the graphics card.

Must be PCI.

.. another slot..? mabey he jammed it ino the PCI slot..? *shudders at thought of cracking/ scraping plastic..*

Even if it is PCI. You can plug it into ANY free PCI slot you want. Maybe he tried to jam an AGP card into a PCI slot or vice versa. I have seen some dude try to jam a PCI-E card into a 8X AGP slot. =_= Not a pretty sight I can tell you.
