I amgetting ready to install an ATI All IN Wonder AGP Video card. I am upgrading from a pitifully slow 2MB card.
What do I do first? Uninstall the old drivers first? Install the new drivers first before I put the new card in?

Get your new drivers ready. Uninstall the old drivers. Install the card (If you need help with that step make mention of it). When it boots up Windows will detect new hardware, select the drivers you get ready (If you need help with that step make mention of it).

I don't know why I thought I had an AGP slot. IT has on-board video and the PCI slot is already taken.
Well, thanks for the help.

With all of the hardware I have bought in the past several years. I can build a half dozen computers. It's time to go faster than the 400 MHZ Pentium II anyway.
