Just yank the card, replace it, then after a successful powerup, install
the nVidia drivers!

Subject: [newbie] switching video cads (what do i need to do?)
Hi, I just swapped my incompatible ATI 8500 for a more compatible
GeForce4 on recommendation of the list. Is there any prepping I need to
do to my system before I switch cards? Can I just swap out the cards
first and then install the drivers? Or do I need to edit inittab to
start are runlevel 3, switch cards, and install nvidia drivers, then
switch back to runlevel 5?
