OK, so I've just bought a new graphic card because the one that I had gotten with my computer sucked hard, but now when I install this one (a Radeon XTG Pro I think, dont' have it on me) it won't work! I head that it's because I didn't disable the graphic controller of the old card, the one that's stuck on my board? How do I do that? Thanks!

Well, normally you would go into BIOS at startup (press Del while the system is booting) and find an option called something like "onboard video" or "shared video card memory" and disable it. It's usually a good idea to remove the drivers, too. For more detailed instructions, you'll need to tell us the exact model of your motherboard.
