Hi,

I hope you can help. I recently installed a new Asus Sabertooth Z77 motherboard. However I am having the following 2 issues.

1) No signal detected for 2nd monitor connected to 2nd DVI output from my Geforece 560 Ti Graphics card. Both outputs worked fine when the card was used with my previous motherboard.

2) Graphics card put in second PCI slot is not detected (this is the case regardless of whether another card is in the first PCI slot or not). The card powers up but is not detected.

Is it likely I have a faulty motherboard or are there settings etc I need to change?

thanks

Jon

Thanks. What does that mean for me - can I fix that or do I need to return the motherboard for repairs. I assume any such repairs would be under warranty?

To clarify; is there any display when you connect it right to the board, or is it only not displaying for the graphics card

You may want to check out the bios updates and see if those are any help. It might not do you any good, but it's worth a look.

**If it's pins then in theory you can bend them back, but I wouldn't try it if you don't feel comfortable with that type of repair.

It might be covered under warranty, although at the same time they might say something along the lines of there is no way to prove if it came out of the factory bent or if you bent it during building.
