Good point Jimmy, You Da Man!

Ok, I got one.

I'm currently running an S-Video cable from my laptop to TV to watch DL'd movies on. My lappy wasn't fast enough to stream properly or to convert quick enough. I'm in the market for a HDTV. What cables do I need to connect the two again, and what would be best to use, my guess is an LCD. Ok...thanks.

Yup was about to say the same. Most, if not all, LCDs come with VGA input....

So...
1. Uninstall old video card, remove all drivers and software asociated with old card.
2. Shut down PC and remove card.
3. Plug new card in and power on the PC.
4. Install new drivers and software for new card.
5. Enjoy better graphics!

When I uninstall the old card drive, do i just go to uninstall and choose "nvidia drivers" or do i go under "control panel" => and some complicated steps that i think i saw someone doing it before?

Either go through the uninstall, or use the contraol panel. Makes no difference.
Personally I always use the control panel just for piece of mind.
