replaced it, was tough, this card takes up two full slots. I had room, but trying to get the old card out there was a locking clip on the right side of the card and where it connects to the MB. I weakened it getting the card out and then snapped it off when I tried to put it down (lock) on the new card.

card is in, driver installed, we'll see if I can play

played for 10 min, no problems!

sweet deal! Hope it works good for BC2 as well....

from some of the research I've been forced to do in this problem, the driver I downloaded for my old card specifically said it had things added and required to play BC2.

Everybody should update drivers IF you cannot play BC2 out of the box on Tuesday. I think there are advancements made that newer drivers have that are required by this game.
