Ok, I am running into a problem here folks. I bought a ATI Radeon 9200 PCI Bus card for my comp as the guy at staples told me it was one that should work in most older comps. I have a emachines W2646, Intel Celeron 2.6g, onboard Intel 82845 Graphics controller. The ATI manual told me to disable the old video drivers before installing the vid card, so I did that. Then I installed the card, rebooted the system and it cant find the card. Also, my screen was xtremely crappy, as I had disabled the vid drivers. Am at a real loss as to how to tell the machine the new vid card is there. Any suggestion?

Jump to PostYour card should have came with a CD. Put it in and install the drivers for your new card.
Jump to PostI would also recommend you download the latest drivers from ATI's website. Make sure you uninstall the previous drivers (if you do use the CD version) from add/remove programs in control panel.
