My dad just got a new PC and I am trying to put in a Graphics Card I have had for a while. I shut the PC down inserted the card into the PCIE slot and then reconnected the cables. Power on and nothing happens. The card is a EVGA GEFORCE GT 610. After nothing happening I went and checked all the connections and the card to ensure they were good. Still Nothing. I then plug back into the onboard graphics just to see if I can look around on the the PC. Even when plugged into the normal onboard nothing happens. I take out the card and then the built in graphics work. I try to install the drivers for the new card but it wont let me because it dosnt see the hardware. I then disable the onboard graphics drivers and try again with still nothing. I test the graphics card in a another computer and it works fine. I go back to the new PC and look through the BIOS settings and nowhere in the BIOS is there anything about onboard or PCIE Graphics. (BIOS - P11-A2) (Computer Model - Gateway DX 4885) I havent tried completely removing any of the onboard graphics drivers because Im not sure if thats a safe thing to do. I would like to try it with the new Graphics Card drivers installed but cant seem to do it with the installer not finding the device, I cant even have the device in the computer to get the onboard to work.
After all that I tried another Nvidia Graphics card I had and that card didnt even work. The only two things I can think of are not working because no Drivers, or PCIE not enabled in the BIOS etc. All help and suggestions is greatly appreciated!!!
