recently bought a emachine.. its the t3302 series with km800 mobo Via s3 integrated vid card.. trying to install a geforce 4 ti 64mb agp on it. i tried card in a different computer and it works fine. Put it in my emachine, changed bios to load agp graphics. It loads bios, goes to POST then my monitor is just black. My monitor is still getting signal but nothing is being displayed. I have checked a few sites and saw that changing vid card in emachine is a pain but cant find anything on doing it... any ideas on how i can do this?

do you still have video output from the via onboard chip when the new card is connected?
