Hi [H] i'm having a little problem with my 8800gts 320mb gpu with my asus p5gc-mx/1333. I just installed a netgear wifi card and now my gpu won't port video. The computer will start up but it switches to the on board vga port. I tried to reinstall the newest nvidia driver and it says it can't find any hardware that works with the driver i'm trying to run. If i take the wifi card out the gpu works fine. Whats wrong and how do i fix it?
 
Is this a PCI-E card or a PCI card you are adding? also, are they next to one another or further apart?

Also, you could try putting the network card in and seeing if you can change the graphics adapter from the BIOS.

Also also, what kind of a PSU are you using?
 
PSU antec trupower 550 wat, They are next to each other and its a pci card.
 
Any chance that the wifi card is somehow causing the video card to be knocked slightly out of the slot? Maybe try the other PCI slot?

Also, what cpu are you using? according to the Asus website under faqs for this motherboard say that weird behavior can be seen with a 1333 MHz FSB cpus and some discreet video cards.
