I bought a GeForce FX 5200 graphics card. It came with a small card that said if you have on-board graphics, you have to enter the system's BIOS setup and change a setting called Primary Display Adapter to 'PCI'. I had to do this so i went into the BIOS and the option i needed to change was called 'Integrated Video Adapter'. I still changed it to the 'PCI' option and plugged my monitor's cable into the graphics card's VGA monitor connector. I start the computer but it's just black. Can someone tell what the problem is? I have an Intel Celeron 1.80 GHz with an Intel 82845G graphics controller if that helps.
New graphics card...HELP!!?
Check your settings again. Plug your monitor into the old slot (on your computer) and see if it still coming up. it looks like the settings might not have gotten changed? Try it again, or try other settings in the BIOS that have to do with display.
You are on the right track, just double check your steps.

Does your graphics card have more than 1 output? If so, make sure you connect the monitor to the correct one. Also, make sure you aren't connecting the monitor to the port you just disabled (I've done this before). It should plug into the new card's port.

Once you changed from integrated to PCI, Did you press F10 in your BIOS to save the changes?
Is the video card sitting tightly on the slot?
If you answer yes to this two questions above, then, there might be something wrong with your video card.
