I got a new graphics card from a friend and wanted to replace my old one
my original graphics card is an Nvidea geforce 8200 and it's not very good and the new one is an Nvidea gt 120 and I plugged itin and then reset the computer
When I went to device management the graphics card wasn't displayed there and I'm not sure what to do
did i make a mistake somewhere?

I've reinstalled it
it's fine though I think I know how to get it working
turns out that I somehow never spotted the missing digital cable on the back

thanks for replying though
