But I am still connected to the same on-board video so that confuses me. I would think it is using the same Intel driver. Only thing I did different is have the BIOS try to boot from PCIe slot 1st for video but I have no monitor connected to that card so it resorts back to on-board video port. Is it maybe using some other generic VESA driver or something now and not the Intel one? Anyway, yes I have nice fast desktop now. Need to try again to make nVidia drivers work and switch to my stronger video card. TJ
