Recently I purchased a XFX 9500 GT graphics card of 1 GB, its a pci express 2.0 card.
whenever i am connecting the card to my system, no display is coming. but the onboard graphics is working properly. The new Graphics card is working fine on my office machine quad core, dq35 motherboard,500 w smps .
I am unable to understand whats the problem. should i upgrade the motherboard or the smps only.

Please help quickly.

thanks.
Go to the bios and try to find the option for display adapter, switch it to automatic or PCI Express(if automatic doesn't work) and restart your machine, should do the job. If it still doesn't work may be there's not enough power to run the card.
