Ok, so I've seen some forum posts with similar problems but none seem to help. So, I recently bought a new CPU, Motherboard, and GPU.
Specs:
GPU: EVGA Nvidia GTX 650ti
CPU: Intel Core i5-3570 @ 3.4ghz
MOBO: ASRock Z77 Extreme4
PSU: HP 450w
HDD: Hitachi HDS721010CLA632 ATA
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium
Monitor: Acer X191W (VGA)
I also have another GPU (GT 530) in my pc, because whenever I plug in the 6-pin cable from my PSU to my New GPU (GTX 650ti) the onboard graphics to my motherboard seize to work. Like its nonexistent, and then my GPU (GTX 650ti) will not display the boot screens.
So I need the other GPU to investigate the problem, and then (miraculously) I got it to be recognized by windows, but then the other GPU (GT 530) took over, reinstalled, and then deinstalled the GTX 650ti, then I tried turning off the PC, take out the GT 530, remove the 6-pin power cable from the GTX 650ti, and then plug my VGA cable into the onboard graphics, and now it wont recognize the GTX 650ti, even though the correct drivers are installed.
I'm honestly so confused at this point... It's either the Onboard Graphics thats taking over and not letting the GPU work, or the PSU. But I don't understand how the GPU is working (fan spinning) and seems to be fully powered and it not work. So the only way I got it to recognize is when the other GPU is plugged in with it, but obviously its going to continue to deinstall and reinstall and fight over each other.
Any suggestions are helpful.
