[RESOLVED] Video Card Install
I hope I am posting this to the correct forum. FYI: I have Windows XP SP3 if that matters.
I just purchased a LG 2240T 22" wide screen monitor and my video resolution does not support the monitor. I need 1920 x 1080 according to LG. My video is currently on the Motherboard which is NVIDIA GEForce 6100. I need an AGP Video card.
I have ordered a EVGA GeForceFX5200 W/128MB. I do not do and gaming, just the usual internet and view and post process photos from my DSLR.
When I install this card and fire up the PC will I need to do anything besides install the driver which will be on the enclosed CD? Will my pc recognize that I have a new video card? Will I have to go into the BIOS in reference to the previous video setup? I am not bad with pc's but this will be new to me since I have never done this. Why I am doing this is I saw that icons, photos etc are a bit squished if you know what I mean.
I would appreciate all the detailed help I can get.
