hi all! i'm looking to get a new video card and i have a few questions. I only have a 16mb card now and i would like to upgrade to a 128mb card, any suggestions on which card i should get? also how do i go about uninstalling my current card and adding a new one? do i just take the old one out and put the new one in or do i have to get rid of the old drivers?
any help at all would be great

It is best when changing a video card to change the display settings to Std. VGA prior to removing the card.
