Driver problems for Geforce fx 5500

Hey, i've had the Geforce fx 5500 video card for awhile and it had been working great. I was trying to play a game and it kept crashing duing it because of my card. I uninstalled the drivers and restarted and a blank screen turned up and keeps happening. I had to plug the monitor back into the old graphics card built into the comp in order to see the screen. Also, when I reinstalled the drivers for the geforce, nothing happend and it still shows up as a black screen when I plug the monitor back into the geforce monitor slot. Anyone know how to help with this problem?
