If it works fine on the optiquest then I would boot up with it.

Get into the device manager, Uninstall all entries under Display Adapters.

Do the same for Monitors, is its even listed.

Shutdown and reboot with the compaq

If that dont work, go back to opti

Go into Display Properties

Settings/advanced,Adapters,Properties

Drive tab/ Upddate Driver

Check install form specific location

Dont Search, Choose and Next

Then install a Standard Display adapter.

Reboot with the compaq. If it work then install the latest video card driver for your card...
