X problems

Maniaman:
I recently swapped the video card in my Linux box.
Now when I boot, it keeps saying it's passed an undefined mode number. I choose 0. Afterwards it boots and stays at the command line. when I try to manually start X the screen goes blank for about 30 seconds and comes back to the command line with this message:

(EE) No devices found

Fatal server Error:
no screens found

The old video card is in use in a different comp.

Distro: Mandrake 9.0

LorKorub:
This is probably a stupid suggestion, but did you run /usr/X11R6/bin/xf86config when you added the new card?

Maniaman:
actually I never. I kept trying to run /etc/X11/XF86config

Maniaman:
I ran what you told me to, Now, how do I get X to use that configuration file? It keeps using /etc/X11/XF86Config-4

Calum:
do
