What are your full system specs?
Did you plug your new GPU into the PSU?
Did you hook the monitor up to the new card or leave it hooked up to onboard graphics?

What is your mobo ? Some On-board graphics need to be disconnected in the bios first.

A a good old GMA 945. Games will feel like chocolate with that X850 compared to your GMA that feel like being poked in the eyes with ice cream cones.

Plug the X850, Plug the monitor to the onboard turn on the machine.
Go to the bios , on "Advanced Peripherals" or "Onboard Peripherals" (i dont have a Intel board to check atm) and disable the Onboard graphics.

The X850 should kick in after you save and Exit. Happy gaming !!!

A 945 chipset should have no problems with your x850.
Make sure to plug a 6 pin PCIe power connector into the x850.

Ensure your VGA/DVI cable is pluged into the x850, not the motherboard.
You will probably need to disable the onboard graphics in your BIOS.
You can find drivers for you card Here.
