Check the Device manager for IRQ conflicts and then try uninstalling the the lan card,use another computer,to download the updated drivers and try reinstalling,reset the video card and check the memory banks to insure that you have enough memory andthey are seated properly

Did you set the jumper on your mother board to let it know that you are using a video card? You can get most jumper setting from the mother board web site. Did you check the monitor on a diffrent computer? And check the pins on the cable, they can be bent or the connections to the pins inside the cable could be bad.

I assume you are not booting properly.
Then it is the LAN Card.
Pull the LAN card, and observe what happens on the boot.
(The PC is probably hanging during the PNP enumeration. Thus the black screen.)

More that likely a resource conflict, pull the LAN card and see what happens. As well you will have to let the system know either through a jumper setting or a BIOS option if you plan on using a video card as opposed to the onboard video.

Go with answer 2 (and give him the points, not me!) Many models with onboard graphics cards always send the video signal to the onboard video unless told to sned it to a different slot by way of a jumper. You'll have to check out the manufacturer's website for the details though.
