Help installing a new video card??

I have recently posted this question:



have an AGP slotted video card, and AGP Slot. I take out my old video card, and pput in a new one, and when i restart my computer, it says windows is in power mode and I can log on to my pc. When i take out the new video card, it does the same thing " Monitor is in powersave mode-activate by using pc". Any help?



Someone said i have to reset BIOS to run AGP slot. How do I do that?|||if u didnt have an agp card before u may need to enable agp in bios settup yes .. depending on the card u may need an extra power connection to it also so check it ... to enter bios setup usually u tap th F1, F2, or DEL key when ur booting ...|||Well i had the same problem and I think he's right, if you open up your case (and unplug your computer) you should see a small round silver/chrome looking battery on the motherboard like the kind you find in calculators and what not. Either remove that battery for a little bit and put it back in or there should be something you press that will eject the battery partially and then push it back down then the bios should be reset.|||Many be us new APG is 8X and ur mother boards Agp slot does not support AGP 8X, oler mother board used to have AGP 4X slot check the mannul for ur MB or check the web site
