I just click ok, and continue trying to install. I go to a window that says "No suitable driver" i tried clicking on "Install Drivers" but that didn't load any installation window. It just didn't do anything. Plz help me since i'm lost on what to do. I believe the root of my problem was failure to install a "video controller device (VGA)" since after i put the video card into the motherboard and restart the comp. Install wizard popped up saying it found new hardware which is "video controller (vga)" and i tried to install it, but it said it didn't find any file to which install the hardware. So it was unsuccessful of installing the hardware.
In device manager, and under "Other devices," "Video Controller" shows up with a question mark as well as "Video Controller (VGA Compatible)"

I tried to download the ati driver catalyst but ran into 'Setup failed to run installation: (0x80040707)"

This is the link to your ECS P4M800PRO-M motherboard drivers

there is a VGA driver offered but this is for integrated graphics ( the manual shows the Graphic driver and the VGA as separate drivers), I'm not too sure if you need to install this driver then install your Graphic card driver.
If you decide to install

SET A SYSTEM RESTORE POINT BEFORE INSTALLING JUST IN CASE

Hope this helps
