You installed it incorrectly.  It’s bad and you should return it.  A setting in BIOS isn’t correct.

The problem most likely is with the new card Dell computers are made with specific parts for Dell computers even a Dell specific version of windows (that's why I hate Dell computers being that I would rather upgrade) the card even though having the same specifications as your old one is not the Dell model. My best answer would be to see if the computer is still under warranty of the store you brought it from (since you opened it Dell has probably voided their warranty) they might be able to fix your old broken video card.

If you have a Dell Inspiron 6000, call Dell, because it's probably still under warranty.  Even if it's not, call them anyway, because there are certain things that are still covered, and this could be a manufacturing defect.  Dell has been super at helping me with my Inspiron 6000!!!  Go to My Programs, and go to the Dell folder.  It has the phone number there to call them...and INSIST on a tier two person, because the idiots from India can't help you.  If you keep getting a person from India, call back.  You'll probably get someone in Canada, who will be able to help you AND can speak proper English!!!

You need to download new drivers for your video card and monitor.  I have no idea what kind of Dell you have, but you should be able to go to their web site and look it up based on either the label on the computer or the Service Tag # or whatever it's called.

Your laptop is a Toshiba and it is not 1337\n\nOh, and monitor is broken.

First and easiest thing to try is downloading and installing the newest version of your video card's drivers.  Check your Device Manager under "Display Adapters" for the model, then go to the manufacturer's website and find the appropriate driver.\n\nI could give you more details if I knew the model of the card.

it is very cheap because it's impossible .. ;)\na Dell Inspiron 6000 has a Pentium M or Celeron M processor with socket 478. a core duo needs a socket M, so you had to replace the mainboard what is about the same as getting a new notebook.

Hi there,\n\nI think Windows XP mostly recognizes a device if it is connected. Which service pack are you using?\n\nThere can be 2 reasons for your problem - Either hardware problem or Software (drivers) problem. Let us analyze them.\n\nDid you get any drivers CD along with your device? If so, then after you connect your device, put the CD and install the drivers for your product.\n\nIf you didn't get any drivers CD, then connect the device, and restart your system once. As soon as the desktop screen opens, wait for the system to identify your device. If it doesn't, try the following-\n\nRight click on my computer, choose 'manage' from the drop-down list, then go to 'Device manager', then go to 'Universal Serial Bus conductors.' It shows you all the USB devices connected to your systen. So do that and uninstall the USB which you connected your scanner. Then restart your system. Now, when the desktop screen appears, if it says it recognised a USB drive, then you can be sure you have no problem with your USB, but a problem with your drivers.(I'll tell you how to download drivers later). So yeah, If it doesn't recognize the USB, then you can be sure there is no problem with your device, and you have to change the USB hardware.(It is generally very cheap)\n\nSo now, If you figure out you have problem with drivers, then go to \n\nhttp://www.scanner-drivers.com/\n\nor  http://search.microsoft.com/results.aspx?mkt=en-US&setlang=en-US&q=scanner+drivers\n\nAnd install the drivers and try reconnecting your device. Even then If it doesn't get identified, get your product verified by a qualified technician. (I am assuming your operating system is perfect).\n\nSo hope this helps. If not, please feel free to inform me. I'd be glad to assist you further. Bye!!\n\nrule wid style n luv@vinny

Find out what card you have.  Go to the web site of the maker of the card and download the drivers for it and install the drivers.  restart.\n\nSometimes, if you remove the card form the slot, restart windows, then shut down, and put the card back in and then restart, Windows suddenly remembers to look for it and installs it...sometimes not.

Type the model name eal 51 and the serial number ( on the bottom of the laptop) into google it should provide you with some driver updates if any are available for it.\n-NmD!

It might be time to upgrade this old Compaq, as it sound like it is a Pentium 2, 233 MHz?  You can buy a PCMCIA ethernet card for $15 and Wi-Fi PCMCIA cards for $30 or less.  I suspect you have the Windows 98 OS on the laptop, so you need to make sure the cards support Win 98.  You could also purchase a PCMCIA USB card, but again need to make sure Win 98 is supported.  Since, you won't use the Ethernet and the Wi-Fi connection at the same time you could put one of the communications cards in the slot and the USB in the other slot.\n\nWe sell the Ethernet cards and Wi-Fi cards or you could search ebay or Google as there are many place to buy these.

no kiddin.... but where did you get this laptop from.... ??????\nIf that's a real problem... then take all your laptop warranty papers and go to the nearest service center that belongs to the brand of your laptop.... else post again with the LAPTOP SERIAL NUMBER...(someone might be searching for it).

It depends on what kind of laptop. I know that many Dells at least can't be upgraded. The best thing to do is to go to your computer's manufacturer's website and look up the information there.

It's a dell. Call customer service in India because thats the only one they have. lol :) They will help or they will make you go nuts.\n\nTry running diskmgmt.msc on run if you have XP. Then right click on the SD drive and click enable. If it doesn't work format the card through diskmgmt.msc

You need to install software and drivers for it, there should be a CD with your laptop, if not then go the Toshiba site and see if you can download from there or ask your shop or toshiba.
