Default Computer freezes after installing 3D accel. Card

I installed a Radeon 9200 PCI graphics card and now my
computer freezes when Windows ME loads. Tech said I need
to disable my mother board integrated display card.??
Hardware conflicts? Thanks for the help. ~Nathan

You need to go into the BIOS/CMOS Setup in order to disable the onboard
graphics adaptor.
On booting, you probably see a message that reads "Press DEL to enter
Setup" - or some variant thereof
After reading your manual(!) do that, and look in the resulting DOS-style
screens for the switch that'll turn off the adaptor
