Graphics cards are plug-and-play, just uninstall your current card.

I have a PCI card to install in my Dell 2400, are there any jumpers to change for the 'new' card to work?
Card is: Verto GeForce2 MX400 with 64MB sdram
Thanks

OK great... but I was under the impression that the existing graphics were provided from the mother board and NOT a separate card, hence the need to jumper someplace to add a separate graphics card?
Thanks
Note that this Dell procedure is dated back in June 2000, but is still found in a search of Dell and installing a PCI card. You may want to enter your 'Service Tag' and do further research with Dell or email them after you register and get a password.

On many other factory computers just installing the PCI video card will automatically disable the Integrated on board graphics. Then on others you may need to disable in the BIOS.
