I recently got an MSI Radeon HD R7770 1GB GPU for my otherwise shabby PC. I went about installing the drivers and connecting my dual display, fired up the PC and everything worked like a champ. Until I turned off the PC... Upon turning it back on, my case fans would spin up, then shut off (as if the computer just turned off), spin up again, then shut off again after about half a second, and this process continues until I cut the power manually.
In order to get it working again I have to turn off the computer, remove GPU, turn on computer using Intel onboard graphics, re-install drivers, turn computer back off, re-install GPU, then turn the computer on again.
I've tried reinstalling the drivers prior to shutting down (with GPU still in) and that has no affect, it still won't start up until I complete the list of steps above.
Does anyone have any idea about this? I've tried googling and searching various sites, the best answer I've gotten so far was possible Bios update, but having looked into that I don't think that's something I'm looking to do myself, a semi-working PC is better than one that won't boot at all... (there IS an available Bios update for my Motherboard though)
