Hi everybody.
I added a video card (I was having an integrated one), and now, after few seconds after the boot, I have a black screen.
Even with recovery mode.
What can I do...?
Thanks!  |

ahah, no, sorry...
ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO.
I was thinking the problem was the change, not the model... |

| Maybe it is a good idea to also disable the other card in the BIOS. |

Thank you very much!!!
It was "simply", I was thinking I had to reinstall all the system...
Hopefully I (you!) solved it. Thank you again.
