    Yes, that sounds like a motherboard issue. May be why they were giving it away.

    When I added a graphics card to my computer with onboard graphics, I had to change a setting in the BIOS. Do not know if that is your problem though.

    Is it the right type of card for your board??? Nvidia/ATI graphic cards use different chipsets, I don't know alot about them but i know that i had to get one that matched the chipset of the motherboard for a friends machine.
