SCOUG seems to be broken so I am sending you a direct copy.

Go back to where it did work.

Boot to VGA

Install new card.

Boot to VGA again.

If that works, nibble your way up from there.

SNAP should probably work if anything will. However, I just replaced
Panorama with SNAP, and while video now works, the screen setup page is
severely crippled. It may be easier for me to reinstall the OS than try
to clean it out.

I once bought a MB, RAM and Video card, together, from Fry's. On Fry's
test bench it would not even POST until they swapped video and RAM for
different brands.

Life is no longer simple.
