    What graphics card do you have?
    What mother board do you have?
    Which operating system Operating system are you using?
    Did you install the drivers that came with the card? if so download the latest from the website.

    Reseat the card a few times..
    Make sure that there is not a setting in the BIOS to choose which graphics card to boot to..
    Check the compatibility of the card with the board, but I assume that you have done this already..

Hung up straight away to save myself the embarrasment!!!!
