I need to remove the video card from an xps gen 2

What is the Dell model? XPS-G2? This is a Laptop?

need 7 digit number you are given when it comes to bootup password.

You either have to call dell or you can get unlock code on ebay for a small fee..

You shouldnt need to unsrew anything on the xps 400.. Everything the case opening and the pci card screws should also be a latch!

Try to check you Video Card Driver software is installed properly and if not then use the Utility disc to install it.
Provided that it will to made your video play faster is install some Video Codec Pack inside.
Check first the Display Adapter were it is installed at Device Manager.

there are 2 things that can cause that, memory failure, or mother board, cheeper route to go would be replace your memory first, and see if that corrects the problem, if not then, check anything new you installed inside such as video card, lan cards, of something like that, if that doesn't work you need to have it looked at and possibly the mother board replaced,

My first guess is that your video card is starting to go bad. My second guess is the processor needs to have its heatsink reseated. If it is under warranty I would have dell repair it so you don't incur the charge of a new video card.

you need the video drivers to your video card.

You can find the drivers at Dell.com and use your Service tag number to find all your drivers :)

Please give back feed back :)

No they change out the whole motherboard and in saying the its invasive and costly and there is no way you can buy a video card for a laptop there all on the motherboard.

Well, these are the minimum specs for Age of Conan:

OS: Windows Vista/XP
Processor: 3GHz Pentium IV
RAM: 1GB RAM
Video Card: Shader Model 2.0 and 128MB RAM: NVIDIA GeForce 5800 or ATI 9800

These are the specs of your computer (base):

• Intel Pentium 4 550 (3.4GHz) Processor
• 1GB PC2-4300 DDR2 Memory
• Two 74GB WD SerialATA Hard Drives in RAID0 Drive Array
• 16x DVD+/-R and 48x CD-RW Burner Optical Drives
• Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Audio
• NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Graphics Card with 256MB

Seems to me that you are okay. Would a faster computer be better? Of course. But as you are, the game should play alright. Upgrading to an 8 series Nvidia is worth the change, though.
