    Welcome to Windrivers Barcar10. Do you know for certain that this card worked when you bought it? Try uninstalling the old video drivers and starting your computer with just the vga drivers. Now see if the computer finds the new card.
    The EDO ram is standard on this card and is not to be confused with the ram in your computer.
