GeForce FX5500 work w/Intel Celeron

Just got the GeForce FC5500 but the PC is an Emachine 1742 with an Intel Celeron processor. On the vid card box, it doesn't saying anything about Celeron, only Pentium. I can't seem to get it to work. I'm running WinXP. Is this the problem? What are my options to fix it?

Is this a PCI or AGP card? What size is your powersupply? Did you disable the onboard graphics before you tried installing through the bios? To answer you question a modern celeron would have no problems running a FX5500. Its probably something simple.

you have to disable the onboard video & change the display setting to PCI (or AGP). Also, if you plan on gaming with that thing, you need at least 512MB RAM.
