    Read this on google it might help

    If you merely disabled or "uninstalled" the onboard graphics' driver in Device Manager, that will NOT do it. It merely makes Device Manager attempt to find a newer version of the onboard graphics' drivers.

    To disable the onboard graphics, you MUST disable it through BIOS so Windows won't even be able to detect it. Your add-on nVidia graphics card will NOT be recognized until you do that.

    Thanks but I got the same answer from Yahoo. I have tried disabling it in BIOS but there is only one option to tell it to switch to AGP once there is a card in the slot and that is selected already. I have checked that it is sitting in properly and still no joy. I thought that it would have deteced the hardware as soon as it was inserted and switched as its supposed but it doesnt.
