Hi,
I recently purchased a GTX 780 EVGA 3GB model for use with a rig running a DX58SO Mobo (i7 980 CPU). The card makes the computer beep twice over a period of about 40 seconds to one minute, then beep twice quickly, then go to a black screen. (The previous card in the machine was a 580) I don't think it gets past or to POST, as even though the BIOS splash displays initially, if I press F2 nothing happens. The bottom of the display throughout normal booting shows number/letter combinations, and it is stuck at 5A now. I don't know what the first two beeps mean, but from my understanding the last two beeps are when a video card isn't recognized?
The card works perfectly fine in another machine (different Mobo), so I know it's not faulty.
Is the GPU compatible with the DX58SO? Everything looks like it should be. What would you recommend trying to get this to work? I'm stumped. I've tried everything I can think of, including updating to the latest BIOS, reseating the card, and various power adapters to the card. The power supply is 1000+ watts so it should be fine, as nothing in the machine is overclocked. I think I should also probably mention that the card does light up normally and the fan spins.
Thanks so much!
