    Hi, I am currently having a problem with my PCI Video Card. I just got a new computer, and I am using the Intel Video Card on my motherboard. And I just removed my old PCI Video Card from my old computer and attached it to my new computer. And when I start up the computer, it freezes at Windows XP Loading Screen. I cannot load Window XP once I attach my PCI Video Card. The video card is working properly, I tried it on my old computer. I do not wish to spend more money for a new video card, that is why I am using my old PCI Video Card.
    The problem is the slot is white, suitable for PCI. I do not know why it is not working.

    I haven't touched my BIOS, hence the fact that I do not know much about it.
    If I do have reconfigure my BIOS, I would need some help o.o

    ATI RADEON™9200, the Excalibur RADEON™9200 128MB

    Here is a link to the model:

    Heh, I know It does suck but it is still better than my Intel right now. It was CHEAP, and I got it a looooooong time ago ;P
    I would use PCI-E but I don't feel like blowing another couple hundreds dollars.

    I just don't know why it freezes when it loads Windows XP o.o

    Thanks, though.

    usually at post your splash screen will say hit del to enter bios or whichever key they have designated(esc, f2, f3 etc...)then in the bios usually under integrated periferas it should have on board video listed . As for pci-e you can pick any pci-e card out there and it will outperform the 9200 as far as price the ATI x300 and NVidia 6200 are very inexpensive so if your board supports them go for it :)

    Thank you guys, I solved the problem.

    I couldn't have done it without you guys' help.
    For all the curious people out there, here is how I did it ^^

    At first I went to BIOS reconfigured some settings. Well it didn't go to well. It still frozen when Windows XP loads. Then I figured if I reboot in Safe Mode, it could work. I actuallly got into windows with safe mode. Then I installed the new driver, disabled my Intel blah blah. Yay ^^

    Thanks for all the input guys. I really appreicate it.

    I didn't really wanna spend any money at all hehe. I am not going for hardcore gaming so yeah my newbie pci will do ;P Maybe in the future when I have more money.
