Hello, I am planing on buying a AMD 7770 and installing it over my Nvidia 9100 integrated card. Here are the steps I am going to use to install my card. Please tell me if there will work.
Step 1: disable my integrated card through device manager then power down
Step 2: physically install the card
Step 3: boot into safe mode and uninstall Nvidia drivers then power down
Step 4: reboot normally then install the 7770's drivers from the website

Will this work if not tell me what to do differently I have never installed a Graphics card before. Here is the card: http://www.amazon.com/XFX-DisplayPort-PCI-Express-FX775AZNP4-FX-775A-ZNP4/dp/B007Z3T5JC/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1374033500&sr=8-4&keywords=amd+7770

Are you running Windows 7/8?

If so, just power down the machine, put the graphics card in, boot up, and install the AMD drivers. The integrated graphics will be automatically overridden without you having to do anything.

Should work the same. Although I greatly, greatly recommend you upgrade to 7/8.
