Yeah, if the card is bad the machine won't POST simple as that
Post back if the card is detected and you need help finding driversthe machine boots fine.  I have the drivers for it some where  Quote from: Ryuk on June 19, 2012, 06:02:57 AM

Part of testing it properly...includes installing the proper drivers.
Which is why i asked originally.If it's not showing in the Device Manager, it's probably dead.
