i wanna install 3d card in my computer but my motheer
board is built in whether i have to disable it or not? if
i disable it then what problems can i face
 
If your motherboard has an integrated video chip, it most
likely doesn't have an AGP slot (though some might), so
you'll need to get a PCI slot style video card. Also,
depending on how old your motherboard is, disabling the on-
board video can be really simple or a bit more
complicated.

If you know the manufacturer of the mobo, go to their site
and download the manual. It should explain how to re-
route your video.

If you do not know the mobo manufacturer, try altering
your BIOS before you play with jumpers on the
motherboard. When starting up your computer press
either "Delete" or sometimes F2 to go into your
motherboard BIOS. Under Advanced options there should be
an "Integrated Features" option. Disable your on-board
video and restart. Your computer will recogonize the new
video card and you should be in business. If there is no
option to turn off the on-board video in the BIOS, you'll
need the mobo manual to tell you which jumper to
switch. !!DO NOT!! just start moving jumpers on your
mobo, you may cause some serious damage to your computer.
