Hi. I recently purchased this PCI card from amazon to flash my Xbox Drive.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

When I install it, my computer does not display on the monitor. However, when I remove the card it does. What could cause this? Should I switch PCI slots? I will +rep for a good answer.

I did. I had the power switch off and the power cable removed during installation.
