I think you would just need to disable your Intergrated, plug in that card, plug in all of the power cabes ect.
 
yes.......

And you have to disable the integrated graphics card.

To disable your integrated gpu (graphics card unit), you will have to enter your BIOS, directions are on the screen at first when you start your machine (often del or F2).

There you will have to search until you find a setting like "onboard graphics: Enabled" and change it to "Disabled".

But don't do this before you install your new card.
.. Lastly, if you feel uneasy about doing the upgrade yourself, you can turn the computer into a local computershop and ask them to do it for you.
But don't pay them too much for doing it!

Check on your computers site and see if you can do the upgrade.

Ok, thanx i have experience of doing that but i just wanted to make sure what i have to do then my pc has integrated video card. Thank You very much!
 
Personally i think you can do it yourself, You do it once you can do it another time with more confidence =]
 
no worries Saibokas

You will grow in confidence with computers the more you add parts.

If you need any more help when installing it then please contact me

Yes, i know how to do it :p. I guess... =) Thank You. Especially big thank to Jase123!!!

Should i buy it on ebay?
 
Also if i remember right most PCI-E cards have a addditional power slot that you need to plug in for power
 
Ebay you could buy it of there yes.... i buy a few things off ebay.. But never buy
a cheap unknown make psu from ebay as these are very unreliable.

By the way have you got a psu (power supply unit)? A good one? If not i could find you a good one.

You mean this:

Input: 100-127V~/ 8A 47Hz - 63Hz
200-240V~/ 4A 47Hz - 63Hz
Output: 300W Max
+5V/25A +3.2V/18A
+12V/19A -12V/0.8A
+5VSB/2A
 
yes... Now give me a link to the card your thinking of getting

Then i can see if that psu will be good enough for your card

Regards Jase
 
well if you wanted one of that video cards quality then you would have to get a better psu.

If you kept the same psu then you wouldnt get as very good one..

I will look for you now tho

Regards Jase
 
well it woundnt work.. Because there wouldnt be enough power to power it.
it may get a display but it would be really sluggish.

If you want good graphics then i recommend getting a better psu
