You may want to check the bios to see what onboard video settings exist. Some computers don't allow both the onboard and an addin card to work at the same time. If that's the case, you'll need to find another video card to put in. For instance an old pci video card that's capable of the screen resolution (and compatible with your Operating System) that you're looking for can be had on ebay for under $15. Sometimes adding another card is the easiest thing to do.

Have a great day!
