So i made a clean build and this happens:
upon booting i get the following error code and no display: A2.
My CPU is an i7-2600k at stock settings.
Ripjaws X 1600 Mhz 8 GB Dual Channel
Zotac GTX 580 1.5GB
OS: Not yet installed (Clean build)
HDD: Seagate baracuda 1TB ST1000DM003
The GPU is plugged into the first PCI-E slot starting topmost. and the DVI cable is connected via adapter to the monitor to the GPUu.
However if i remove gpu and put the cable in the mobo vga port it booted up to bios. The GPU is a known working card. it has been tested after this incident on another pc and works fine. Some people are saying i should move the gpu to the bottom most slot? that primary graphics only work on bottom most slot, is this true? Also hardware secrets says that since i am using a sandy bridge my pcie 3 slot will run at 8gbps. Does that mean my GPU cannot rn in ifrst two slots?
