Afternoon! Quick question. Any idea why my Radeon 5870 isn't working? I didn't have enough room for the card in my current case. I bought a PCIe extender in hopes to remedy this issue. Now I am getting, what I hope is an easy fix. When I plug in any of my connectors from my two monitors I get no signal.
The 5870 has 2 pci 6 pin power connectors. I have a 700 watt PSU. This is the only card I am running as well. The monitors have a DVI-D connector and VGA. I have VGA to DVI-A, VGA to DVI-I. I do not know if the DVI types matter at all.
The monitor is showing no signal, but the computer boots up fine. I tested my old graphics card on the riser and it functioned.
I have to be missing something stupid.
