You should first get all the drivers (software) for the new card (this may have come with it)
Then go to Add/Remove programs and fully remove the old video card's software
Then shutdown and remove the old card
Then install the new card
Turn back on
Load the setup software

Be aware of antistatic precautions, and it's always a good idea to have the computer's manual.
