    Hi all!
    1st post on here...and it's a question for help!
    I have a run-of-the mill Compaq Presario SR5130NX. It's equipped with the GeForce 6150 graphic card (built in, I believe), not at all suitable for the latest games, such as COD4 etc.
    I would like to know if I install the GeForce 7600 GS into the motherboard will I need to disable the original, or can they both run alongside each other?
    Any help and suggestion is greatly appreciated

    if you install a new video card the onboard graphics will be disable. you might have to go into the bios and manualy disable if you have problems with it. the 7600gs wont play cod4 with good settings. i would get a hd 3850. also if you only have 1gb of ram you should upgrade. otherwise you will have trouble with some games.
