If you fit the video card in the other computer as long as it works it will function in low resolution VGA or SVGA mode until you get the software from the internet for it, no drama

A lot depends on the card and version of Windows.

If you are running Windows XP or Vista and the card is supported by the native Windows default drivers, all will be fine. Otherwise, in order for the card to function properly, you do need the actual drivers for the card.

You can download the drivers and either store them on the target computer, or copy the files onto a USB driver or burn them onto a CD.

You do want to make sure that the target computer does support the card you plan to install.
