Motherboard:AS Rock Z77 Extreme 4
CPU: Intel Core i5-3570K Quad-Core Processor 3.4 GHz 4 Core LGA 1155
GPU: MSI AMD Radeon 7950
Power: Seasonic 80Plus Power Supply M12II 620 BRONZE
I built my computer 2/2013 and it ran perfectly. A few days ago I moved cities, so removed and later reassembled my cpu cooler and graphics card. I had the original packaging for the graphics card and was very careful, so do not believe it was damaged in the move.
When my HDMI and VDI cables are connected to the graphics card, my monitor will turn on, and I will get to the windows logo and spinning dots. Then my monitor will go blank, end of story.
The fans on the graphics card are spinning (I have 2 6-pins connected to the power source)
When my VGA cable is hooked up to the motherboard, and nothing is hooked up directly to the graphics card, windows will load normally. However, I will only be using the onboard graphics (Intel HD graphics 4000) so cannot play my games.
-The GPU is in my PCI Express slot, which is set to default in my BIOS. There is another PCI express slot on my motherboard, but since the card is large another part of my motherboard prevents me from seating it into that slot.
-In BIOS, the PCI slot holding my GPU is highlighted yellow; however when I mouse over, it only detects my HDMI and DVI cable. My graphics card is not specifically mentioned there.
-I have uninstalled and reinstalled the latest drivers for my Radeon 7950 twice using Catalyst Control Center.
-I have physically uninstalled and reinstalled the graphics card about 7 times, and am sure it is seated properly. I have also inspected the gold pins, and they appear undamaged.
-Under "Device Manager," both my GPU and onboard graphics are listed
-I have tried Clr Cmos.
Is there anything else I can try to get my motherboard to recognize/use my Radeon 7950? I have tried to include as much information as possible. I am not sure what the problem is at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
