Card: Galaxy Geforce gtx570
PSU: Antec 620W
Motherboard: Asus P8Z68-V
So I recently reformatted my hard drive and acquired a new OS, but I can't get my graphics card to work. All of the hardware pieces, including the card, are the same from 2 years ago when I bought them.
When I hook up my card into the motherboard, the display completely doesn't work. I can't access my bios or anything. Its just a black screen
-I have connected both 6-pin power connectors
-The fan and lights turn on
-Motherboard plays only 1 beep confirming proper start up
-Light show on the board goes through, (short hang on the VGA but still continues), No lights stay on meaning no problems/malfunctions.
-I do not hear the OS (Win 7 Ultimate) play its melody so I am not sure if it reaches that point, or it does reach that point but the sound card is also undetected so sound cannot be heard
When I remove the card, I can get proper display with sound using the onboard graphics card, but it does not work if I have the external card hooked up.
I can not install drivers since it will not install saying "no compatible card detected," and the only option left is to cancel installation.
I have yet to install the card into another computer to check that it is still working, but I would like to see if there are anyother options available to me.
