Download the new graphics drivers and save them to a place you can easily locate later

Remove the existing graphics drivers

Shut the computer off and unplug it

Open the case

Remove the old graphics card

Install the new graphics card

Plug the computer back in and start it

Once you're back in the OS, (the screen will look strange, because you're running generic drivers and don't have the resulotion set any more) - locate the drivers you downloaded in step 1 and install them.

Profit
