ok, after placing the graphics card in the slot, i put the vga plug into my pc and the normal blue one on the screen. It said that it couldn't find anything..
so I took it off.
You mean that after installing the new graphics card you plugged the monitors cord into it? Did you make sure to plug the power cord into the graphics card while installing it? Were you sure to install any driver CD that came with it? If you did, and it still doesn't work, post your BIOS type/version (like Phoenix if you know it), or your motherboard make and model.
Yes, I plugged the monitor's cord into the card. What do you mean by power cord? I only have a blue one that goes into a connector type thing that goes inside my card. I don't think I did plug it. Right now, I disabled my xpress 200 series and my pc is using the default monitor graphics card.. thats all it says. Should I shut down, take the card out of the slot, putting in the blue cable and connector into in and then starting it up again?
