I rarely ever have had to ask for technical support in my life being 17. But I got a new graphics card and spent the whole day on the phone and in hp chat to get help only to find out I dont have enough power supply from my friend.. So I took out the card and Enabled my integrated graphics card again and now have a new problem.
When i start a video or game I get colored lines then poof. Computer restarts:(
Says I have a driver error in windows report. What should I do:(

wish i could help...the only factory computers i've put vid cards in was a 6 y.o. compaq, and a new gateway that had enough power.....and the compaq had a g-force card to start with, so it was only an upgrade....everything else has been custom gamers....put a card in before it was even powered up. but that kind of driver problem was like something i saw late in the compaq's life....tried a 9200se in it and it didn't like it(couldn't un-install it) just reformated with the old card in it and it still runs fine today. BTW...how big is your P.S. and what card you put in?

did you uninstall the onboard vga drivers in safe mode ?
then install the video card , then start up going straight into the bios (del ) key and disable the onboard video ?
also set your agp port and bios setting to reconize new hardware along with the graphics size AE 64,128,256 ? now restart then load up the drivers for the new card , then run dxdiag (9.0c) you should be good to go then .
note you may have to turn off any AV /firewall junk to get a clean driver install.

it's a HP...probably no access to the bios
-
I remember working working on a compaq that would not allow access to remove the driver in bios...we had to disable the onboard video under start -> cntl panel -> system -> hardware -> device manager -> display adapter. Then restart and reload the drivers for the new card.
Not the preferred way, but it should work.
