GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 770 2GB Video Card
Mobo: MSI P67A-GD65 ATX LGA1155
PSU: Corsair Professional 850W 80 PLUS Silver Certified ATX12V

Today I upgraded my GTX 570 to a GTX 770. However, now when I boot, POST takes 2-3 minutes instead of 2-3 seconds. It hangs on the black screen during this time with B2 in the bottom corner, and before Windows starts loading a brief mashup of colors flashes for about a second. However, after this happens Windows loads as quickly as before and goes to Desktop as normal, and the 770 seems to work completely fine once at the dekstop. When I switched back in the 570, POST was normal until I switched back to the 770.

So when I replace my 570 with the 770, POST goes from 2-3 seconds to 2-3 minutes although after loading windows everything works fine under load.

I should also note if I attempt to access BIOS after the long POST time with the 770, all I get is this screen: http://i.imgur.com/EggPlzz.jpg

I have no idea what about the GPU would screw up POST, so if anybody knows I would really appreciate the help.
Thanks!

So I updated my Mobo BIOS and drivers, and now the 770 won't even go to Windows. After sticking to the screen with the B2 for a few minutes, it just goes to another black screen with only a blinking underscore that continues indefinitely.

What a mess. I can't even get to Windows with my 770 now :/

Hey nate. I have the same MB and GFX as you and even though I have 1.J I get into Windows, but after the prolonged POST. Have you heard anything more on the subject? The cards are fairly new but there should be somekind of solution to this quickly.

Did your card work flawlessly before you flashed? I am thinking of not doing anything in hope of an update or something coming along. Just as long as I can use the card in the meanwhile.
