It's been a while since I have done a lot of work with graphics cards (and I don't have time to read all the posts, maybe this was already suggested.)
Have you tried putting the old graphics card in, firing up windows, and switching to the generic VGA driver (can you still do that with newer versions of Windows?) and then putting the new card in?

Nope, this will be the second set of problems (software ones) now the computer is not capable to go after the BIOS POST screen, therefore the OS drivers are still not the issue...
Thank you!

This guy has the same problem as you and he's got a 600w PSU. It seems to me to be an incompatibility between the HP bios and the nvdia card.

Without prolonging the thread too much I just wanted to mention that I have an nVidia card which requires an additional plug from the PSU; however if you do not plug in the extra plug, the system will still boot into windows just fine. You then get a friendly reminder/warning when you log in from the nVidia driver that the card cannot achieve peak performance without the extra power. But it works just fine for non-game stuff. So I'm putting my money on Paul's theory.

Yes Paul!
You are the second one to post the same video here and it looks like there's an incompatibility issue here... I'll test it and see what would happen if I would select the PXE network boot in the BIOS settings as the default option, if that mitigates a little bit the issue and my inlaw is happy I'll be happy too, if he is not happy then it will be time to get another motherboard and some thermal paste for the processor... 
Thank you for posting!

No problem. I've had similar issues on an older HP mobo and nvidia card. One particular machine ground to a near halt after adding an nvidia GT8800 card. On the post screen you could watch it take a second or two to draw each individual character. Boot time was something like 30 minutes!!

NIIIIIIIICE!
I understand it is difficult to keep everything updated, but... this kind of things are terrible.

Wrote a new SQL Scalar function in SSMS toady, and just couldn't get it to do anything:
SELECT MyFunctionName(MyColumn) FROM MyTable Just underlined it in red and gave me
'MyFunctionName' is not a recognized built-in function name. And wouldn't run my query.
SELECT dbo.MyFunctionName(MyColumn) FROM MyTable Underlined it in red, said
Cannot find either column "dbo" ot the user-defined function or aggregate "dbo.MyFunctionName", or the name is ambiguous. But would run it, and returned null for all rows.
Spent an hour trawling google and playing with user execute permissions. Starting to pull my hair out.
Then I looked closely at the function and realised I didn't use the input parameter at all, and the function was rightly returning null... 
I still hate SSMS and functions...but it works now...

Glad to be of help!

And you ask yourself why functions require schema name, but not stored procedures and views and tables...
Good question...

And why it can't find them, but runs them happily...

Oh...That one...The intellisense of SSMS is just does not exists...Even SQL is case-insensitive dbo and DBO are not the same for intellisense...So do not expect too much there...(It's one of the most reported bugs, but Microsoft do not plan to do anything with it for now)

[Ctrl]+[Shift]+[R] any time you change anything other than data. In my world that has confused the crap out of many a junior developer (or people more used to Visual Studio)

You forgot to mention the complete lack of meaningful error messages in SSMS...

That's exactly the reason I don't like business rules in SQL Server... Try troubleshooting that #@$#*@#*@^R#@#^!!
And it gets really annoying that any object you create isn't recognized by intellisense or even any query (but runs fine) until after you restart SSMS completely (just reconnecting to your database won't work)!

Pressing Ctrl + Shift + R refreshes intellisense no need to restart SSMS

The shortcut I've been searching for all my life... (Or at least the last few years)!
This will certainly make my productivity sky-rocket! 
And shame on me for not knowing this
