Re:
You should download and install the correct drivers for your video card as well. They should work with basic functionality anyway. As Stan says check the AGP is enabled in your BIOS not only the on-board graphics (on my PC I have two options for this, "OnBoard/AGP" or "PCI" so this doesn't arise)
There are many guides to install a new / different graphics card in your computer eg there's one here http://www.playtool.com/pages/vidtable/table.html

Hi, The problem sounds to me like you need to access the bios and make sure the AGP is enabled. If this is enabled then you may need to go to the manufacturers site and download the drivers for your board and operating system. With a P3 you should have no trouble running XP so if you are not using this already then perhaps you need to upgrade as XP has a very good set of drivers built in and will run most video cards and sound cards

Remove cable connecting monitor to computer, turn it on. If you see a "NO SIGNAL" note, your monitor is ok and the problem is the graphic card of your computer. If you've recently removed and reconnected the monitor, might be a bent pin of cable input.
If Monitor is dead when you turn it on disconnected, it's defective and you should repair it
I have a motherboard intel dg41rq and intel core 2 duo E7200 and nvidia geforce 9500 GT and 4gb ram (DDR3).It will work with call of duty black ops 2 and FIFA 13.So your done.
Graphics support is mainly determine by the mother board. based on the processor you have that mother board should be equipped with a PCI express slot. in that case YES it is Supported. make shure you follow installation instructions and check that you have at least the minimum power supply requirements for the card 380W or above.
Best of luck
Hello. Looking at your specs, I assume that a Pentium 4 is not enough to run these kinds of games, so the overwhelming amount of data going through the cpu may have been causing your system to overheat. Do these steps: (1) Uninstall and then re-install your graphics card driver, if problem persists, go to number 2 (2) Try playing around with the ATI Catalyst settings, set everything there to default (3) If problem still persists, then I -am- sure that your PC and/or graphics card is way too overheated, in this case: (a) I recommend getting a heat-monitor (doesn't come cheap though) for your PC, to keep yourself notified of the temperatures of your PC (b) Try buying more fans and if you can afford it get a water-cooling system
Above all, if you can afford a better -Gaming- PC then I'd suggest that, because your system isn't really that great for new games.
DUE you're going to work with graphics files you need a good HDD (capacity) 500 GB will be great Memory at least 1GB and above Processor 3.0 Ghhz and above DVD Drive (any double layer) Sound card (on board is enough), however you can improve later adding a new one, but you don't need that) Good Graphics card (At least 256 MB)
