I took this right off HP's site for his model


Before you begin

Make sure that the new video card is not installed in the computer. If it is, remove it and its drivers per the video card manufacturer's suggestions.


Adding a new video card in Windows XP

Use the following steps to add a new video card on an HP Pavilion computer that has Windows XP:

Click Start and right-click My Computer.

Click the Hardware tab, and then click the Device Manager button.

Click View, and then Show Hidden Devices.

Click the Plus (+) sign next to the Display Adapters category to expand it.

Select a graphics controller under Display Adapters and click Disable. Click OK to confirm.

Continue to disable all of the graphics controllers until all are disabled. Do not restart the computer until all controllers are disabled.

Turn the computer off.

Install the new video card and software using the instructions that came with the video card. For help, refer to the HP Support document Taking Apart the Computer for Upgrade or Service .


....Hole, get it back to work with your on board, you may have more to disable under Display adapters. Does anyone agree?
