you'll need to disable it in the BIOS when you first start the computer it will run checks your memory and your hard drive and cd rom, press Del and find the option in there for onboard gfx

You sure you've removed all the Nvidia drivers before putting your radeon card in?. Use this check and remove.

haha Vista, in that case ur onboard was designed to work with Vista and ur drivers suited. What model Radeon card have you bought and what drivers are you currently running?.
