Hello CalebBachmann.  I understand you're having some trouble with your graphics card.

Have you checked the BIOS to see if there was a way to disabled your current graphics card?  To get into your BIOS reboot your computer and press F10 until the BIOS loads. 

Let me know if this helps.  Have a great day!

the only ohter graphics card it has is onboard.and i've tried uninstalling those drivers but still the same problem.

super late but wanted you guys to know im using a evga gtx 650 2g ddr5 graphics card in mine

Low Profile? I tought only Zotac made the 650 in Low Profile...

So is it stable, no overheat or PSU problems?

Where did you buy it?

Thanks

Just got my DC7800 SFF as well and i have been checking here for a good video card.

im really not good with technical stuffs you see so I just have this noobie question

Your suggestion: AMD Radeon™ HD 6450 Graphics

can I also use a 2GB DDR3 version of the video card???? will it still work?? Im just concerned if it will be supported by the 240W PSU.

here is the link of the video card:

Hi:

That shouldn't be a problem.

There is one forum member who installed a low profile Radeon HD 7750 in his dc7800 SFF and reports it is working great.

That card would run circles around the 6450.  See the last few posts at the thread below.

I used Rdeon HD 6450 DDR3 and it worked great on my DC7800 SFF,

Now im thinking twice since the HD 7750 is added to my list. But ive been checking and that card seems a little expensive, Im just thinking, that 7750 is much better off with a better System, so that it could use its full capabilites.

Anyway , ill still add it to my list ^_^

+ Radeon HD 6450

+ Radeon HD 7750

thanks for that quick response, good thing this thread is still alive.
