Thanks for the info. Yes the computer does recognize the newly installed card. I went to device driver once and it had an exclamation by it, then when I went back a second time it didn't but nothing worked any differently. Anyway I didn't have a lot of time to mess with it before we just took it back to the Geeks.

The Geeks are still scrathing their asses (I mean heads, might be the same thing).

The exclamation point would suggest that the drivers/software were not installed properly. The fact that it is gone now would suggest that windows doesn't see it at all. That would be more like bios hiding it or a bad card.

Yeah, that's kinda what I was thinking except that Geeks are baffled by what's going on. I know that sometimes you think that the simplest thing can't be, but it just might be.

<!--Many years ago I had a GTO with newly rebuilt 327 I put in it. (A friend rebuilt it for me) 50 miles down the road and it quit running. Just stopped. I checked everything but the engine itself, because after all it was rebuilt right. I just knew it had to be electrical or something like that. But then I thought, what if the timing chain slipped. So I took a spark plug out turned the engine till piston was on TDC and checked timing gear marks. They were perfect, so back to scrathing my head and ass for a couple of more days. Then one day a guy I worked with said, "Did you check the timing gears?". I said, "Yes I did" and he said when piston was TDC did you make sure it was up on compression. I said no because the gears were perfectly lined up, they surely wouldn't have slipped a perfect 180º. He said, I had one that did. I went home that day and checked it again the right way and sure enough, it did. My friend that rebuilt the engine said there was nothing wrong with the gears so I didn't put new ones on. He never rebuilt anything for me again.
Anyway, I'm rambling on. But, in short I wonder if the Geeks are thinking the same way I was. That nothing could be wrong with the card, it's new.-->
