I tried that, but when i put in the new PCI card, it wont give me a picture, even through the old card.

Actually I think we can solve it this way
go into BIOS and then go over to Advanced
In the advanced settings do you see something that says
Video Boot Type : onboard 512 or onboard 1mem
Then right below that setting, do you see something that says
Primary Video Adapter: Onboard

I told him to get a local tech to flash the BIOS with that patch.
