Fit the graphics card and connect the monitor cable.

Boot the PC and download and install the latest drivers from the nVidia website.

Don't worry about removing the old graphics software.

The reason you should download the drivers rather than use the supplied CD is because the supplied CD is well out of date as these products sit in warehouses etc. for weeks after they are packaged.

Default installing a nvidia 7600gt?

I had nvidia...lasted 6 months. Got another nvidia...lasted another 6 months. Got tired of buying nvidias, so I invested in ATI Raedon Ecstasy 128mb and have had it running solid for 2 years and counting. And ATI is owned by AMD. My choice for cpu.
