hello, am planning on installing a new graphics card, ive took a look inside my computer and theres a brown,black and 2 white slots available, i think the brown slot is for a graphics card (AGP), the graphics card i have now is on my motherboard, the question is when i try and install the new one where are the connections going to go because i cant remove the built in one, and theres no hole on my comp at the back for the connections, any help plz am getting confused?

remove the cover. on some cases you have to break it off. in any case, this is a hardware question, not an XP question. check the hardware forum.

How to install a new video card: http://www.cybertechhelp.com/html/tutorials/tutorial.php/id/12

This might help you. Very simple instructions. http://h20015.www2.hp.com/en/document.jhtml?lc=en&docName=bph06273&prodId=hppavilion28090 It pertains to HP computers but deals specifically with on board video cards. I would suggest that if you have TV out in a pci slot, you remove it when you add the new card as your computer will probably try to reinstall the device.

Mark, you need to do several things. First establish if your MOBO has an AGP slot, colors are different for each MOBO but the slot will be separate from the PCI slots. The best way to go is to check on the web site of your manufacturer and look for compatibility and if it supports AGP 2x, 4x, 8x etc. before you purchase a card. You may have to buy a card that uses a PCI slot. I am assuming your present configuration has an on-board graphics chip from what you have said. After you insert the new card into its proper slot, on boot up go into the BIOS and disable your present graphics chip. When you boot into windows it will find the new hardware and install drivers. It may be that the new graphics card instructions will tell you not to let windows install the card but to do it with the software that accompanies the card, just follow directions. This is the best I can offer on the basis of what you have told us.
