Problems installing e-GeForce8600GT on Pavilion a6030la

Hi everybody, I am having problems installing an e-GeForce 8600GT in a Pavilion a6030la. My desktop runs on Windows Vista and I have not been able to install the monitor driver yet (HP w1907) since it has a bug HP has not fixed yet. I have disabled the current video and TV card drivers but the monitor does not pick any signal and disconnects, does anybody have an idea of what could I do? or, is it simply that I bought the wrong graphics card? P.D.: I have already upgraded the power supply to 400W

Are you using nVidia drivers after 163? (version number that is)

If so, there seems to be a bug where it outputs to S-Video (or similar) by default. You may need to plug something into that port so that you can get into the control panel to setup the signal to the monitor.
