No VGA drivers installed...

Hi,

I recently purchased a new Acer AMD Radeon HD 6670 PCI-Express GDDR5 to replace my old AMD Radeon Sapphire 3870 card.

I have an integrated card that is still installed in Device Manager and I followed these steps;

Uninstalled the old Sapphire card and powered down.

Installed the new card, powered up and installed the new drivers using the CD provided.

Once installation was complete, I shut down and restarted.

When boot was complete, I got a message on screen to state that VGA driver was not installed.

Within Device Manager, the new graphics card is visible but there is a yellow triangle with a question mark within it.

On checking this, it appears that the drivers are either not installed or not working.

I then visited the AMD website for up to date drivers and half way through the installation my computer crashed and a blue screen appeared stating that physical memory was being dumped.

This has happened each time I try and install the up to date drivers.

On checking various forums I am wondering if the BIOS is picking up the integrated graphics card and what I simply need to do is change this to the PCI-e card?

Any help would be appreciated…
