Please could someone help.

I have an XP SP2 machine and recently my graphics card failed to function -
Gobbly Gook on the screen etc, etc. I swapped the card from another PC it now
boots into the BIOS ok but it freezes before loading windows with a "Blinking
Cursor" on the top left hand screen.

Any help in getting this resolved would be extremely welcomed.

Regards.

Try booting into safe mode and loading the correct video drivers.

Can you boot the machine with a Win98 boot diskette or CD
(www.bootdisk.com)?

Don't bother to waste your time with the OP
he posted the same question on another group yesterday
got a lot of good advice (including that of another MVP)
and ignored *all* of it!

Thanks for the tip.
