Hi guys so i upgraded from a gtx 550ti to a evga gtx 760 and I'm having problems booting my computer up... After i switched out the graphics card and the psu I turned on the pc and everything turns on correctly within the computer but the monitor is black and i get 1 beep for turing on my computer like normal, and than i get 3 short beeps each about 10 seconds apart. do you guys have any ideas what it could be? Thanks. One idea that i do have is that if you look at this motherboard the graphics card would not allow me to put my sata cables for the hard drive and the optical drive into sata 1 and 2 on the motherboard(would not fit)... SO is it ok that they are in sata 3 and 4? Does that matter that 1 and 2 are empty?

put the old card back in and then clear the cmos. it should let you boot again and then get into the bios and update it.

ok i switched back to old graphics card and everything worked good... So than i went to msi.com to download the latest bios update, but their website is down:(  so do you think if i download this bios http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/GRAPHICS-BOARD/EVGA/EV... ,,, will it will work with my motherboard?, or should i just wait for msi website to come back up?
