Hello, I just got a new EVGA 660 ti sc and I'm having trouble getting it to work. I installed it and booted up my pc and tried to install the drivers from the disk and it says the graphics driver cannot find compatible graphics hardware, so I checked in side my case and the fan is spinning so obviously its turned on. Then I went to device manager and found that its not shown under display adapters, so I tried the newest drivers from nvidia and its still saying no compatible graphics hardware. Can anyone help?





System specs...

Windows 8 64 bit

I7 4770k

asus z87 pro

corsair vengeance 2133 mhz ram running at 1600mhz

samsung 840 120gb ssd

western digital caviar blue 1tb hard drive

corsair cx 600m

Hyper 212 evo

EVGA 660 ti sc

Thanks.

As long as you connect to the PCie 3.0 16X slot it won't make any performance difference.
