Okay if anyone can give me an idea of what is going on with my pc, I just got a GTX 770(from a HD 7770) and a new PSU Cosair TX650M I'm running a HPE H9 1180 i7 3770 12 gigs of ram and now sure what other specs are needed to diagnose this problem.

I get 3 beeps and it hangs at my hp screen when I try to get to my bios it doesn't let me get anywhere but the boot menu and it freezes there. I've disabled Uefi and enabled legacy. I've uninstalled the AMD drivers or so I think before installing. I didn't realize the computer has onboard graphics as well but I don't see the driver anywhere to disable it. I've tried drive sweeper for getting rid of the amd drivers.

Now this is what I don't understand really, once I get my pc to boot into windows after i keep hitting the num lock key once its in the boot menu it boots up windows and the GTX 770 is recoginized I even installed nvida drivers and played a game and launched a benchmark of ffxiv. I don't think its the issue of the card not being seated but it works or at least I think so any ideas guys I am really stumped. I may try a fresh install of windows tomorrow after work

Thanks for the responses guys, the only beep codes I could find were from hp and it said the graphics card. Could it be the PSU isn't giving it enough juice? it is a 650 what with 12v rails. I can't find any bios updates at all either. Its not even like a regular bios I can jump to either its just something else. I haven't tried clearing the cmos yet. I just don't understand when I can get into windows it recognizes the card and it works -_-.
