So I've read through as many threads as I can on here and I think I have narrowed down the problem. I believe I need to update my BIOS (please correct me if I'm wrong) but I'm running into an issue. When I look to see my currently installed BIOS it doesn't make sense for which my mobo's website currently offers as downloads. So here's whats working and whats not and the build I'm working with.

Mobo: MSI Z68A-GD80 (G3)
GPU: EVGA GTX 760 2GB
CPU: i5-2500k
PSU: Corsair 850w
Mem: 2x4gb G.Skill
OS: Win7 64

So using the on board graphics I can load to the bios to get this info. Current BIOS version is E7672IMS v18.2 and I cant find this version on MSI's website at all. I'm not sure which version I should attempt to load to try and fix the problem. When I start up with the 760 installed is when I get the B2 in the bottom right with the cursor in the top left.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

version 19.2

It's been out for over 8 months so I'd say it should be ok to use otherwise they probably would have pulled it by now.

Thanks! I'll try that one. I did see that, but when it comes to this aspect of working on pc's I get a little iffy on what to do. Does updating the BIOS seem like a reasonable explanation to my problem?

Ok, updated my BIOS and still getting the same results! I tried to put the GPU in a different slot, same result. I used the DVI cable vice the HDMI cable and still, same result. Any suggestions?
