compatibility shouldn't be an issue with a PCI card ,how did you uninstall and disable the onboard ??
Usually one of two ways to disable , jumber on motherboard, or in the bios!
so with the computer running ,you would go right click on mycomputer/properties/hardware/ device manager /uninstall drivers for the onbard video display .shut down computer install the new PCI card ,then disable the onboard ,if its a jumper on the motherboard do it before you boot computer ,if its in the bios ,boot computer to BIOS/SETUP and disable onboard ,then reboot computer and windows should detect the new video card ,and either load the drives or ask for place where drivers are located /like on a cd that came with the new card . ,

D845GVSR Intel® Celeron® 2.7 GHz This is the motherbaord I am using. Intel says you can disable it through BIOS, and you can. Windows does not want to use it. ANY help..
