I have a Dell dimension 2400. Do I have to go into the bios to disable the
onboard video graphics controller. I have an nvidia Geforce 5200 installed
and I dont know if these 2 will conflict. Can you disable it in the device
manager?

Actually before you install nvidia,one should uninstall on board in device
mgr,close out,then shut off computer.Install nvidia,you should then adjust
in BIOS for AGP or PCI card,then start xp,once in xp,uninstall on board
again,
then install nvidia software,after restart computer.This lets the OS access
the
on board + its graphics memory,usually 8mb.

Do you already have the video card installed or are you planning to
install it? If it is already installed, and everything is working fine,
then there shouldn't be any problems with it.
