Ok, my eVGA 8800GT 512mb (newegg) will be here somewhere around thursday this week...$250 w/ tax free shipping and a $10 mail in rebate. 8-)
I know how to install it but, I heard something about uninstalling old drivers on the old card...? I have an integrated 6150SE...so I go to device manager and click uninstall drivers?

I went into the bios and disabled the onboard graphics, Unistalled the drivers, restarted, ran driver sweeper, then ran reg cleaner. Installed the current driver (let it sit for a minute per Nick) then restarted let it sit for a minute. THen I installed Nhancer agian which i uninstalled before I uninstlled the drivers. Re booted then applied Nick settings for Nhancer.

Could someone please explain in extreme detail how to do this? I don't even know how to get to the BIOS.
Driver sweeper? And I don't own a reg cleaner on this computer..

Also, should I get the drivers from the included disk or what? I've seen a lot of people that are having problems with the 8800GT 512mb's AA not working so I want to fix that problem (if it's there) before I get into a huge mess.

Ok, found the BIOS...don't see anything here about removing the card though?

6150 is disabled when you connect PCI-E, you don't need to do anything. If you spot two videocards in device manager then you do.

So, when I install my new video card, I need to go into my BIOS and go to primary video adapter and select PCI-E correct? Just making sure.

Thanks

Yes. "Onboard video memory size" should also be blank since it's now disabled.
