is the card a different type than the onboard card--you say it's a pci, is the onboard an agp? you might have to make a change in bios. if so I guess you'll have to do it with the onboard card and let the computer boot if you can see it, then turn it off. and since we all do silly things--did you change the monitor connection to the pci card when you put it in? I've done that with sound cards and modems then wondered why they didn't work, lol!
