Did you disable your onboard graphics chip in the BIOS? Do you have a power plug attached to that 9800 Pro? If you don't, you need to.
What do you mean when you say that you took the integrated graphics out? I hope that you mean that you actually disabled it, which is a far cry from digging it out of your mobo. :)

That is a little vague.
Suppose your hardware is poorly installed, BIOS setup improperly configured, and your Windows installation is rotten - what can we do to help you in this forum?
We require specific symptoms/errors and knowledge on your part to start to know where to begin.
Lemme guess - your buddy doesn't know what's wrong and has been spending too much time on the problem (and he's guessing, too)?
I suspect your problems, if he has setup the hardware properly, are OS related.
Anyway, it goes like this:
1) build hardware
2) start system, setup BIOS
3) continue booting to DOS with floppy disk
4) establish basic system (hardware) stability
5) install Windows OS
6) confirm system stability
All PC users, if they are confident 1-4 are okay, will often find themselves at step 5 if their PCs are not solid & reliable in day to day use.
I have a coupla spare 40GB HDs around, so I can do a quick OS install with client's HD removed/disconnected.
If system is fine, client's OS is rotten.
You can fix your OS (keyword: ddp) LoL, how's it go again ddp?
CCleaner; Spybot S&D; Lavasoft AdAware; AntiVirus; TrojanHunter; and (for tough cases) HijackThis!
Anyway, challenging to repair messed-up Windows - easier to reinstall it.
But only if you are good and solid through steps 1-4...
Let us know how it works out. Maybe let somebody skilled take a look at it, if needed.
