Hello,

I have a new Z87-pro mobo and cannot get it to detect the graphics card (nVidia GTX570). So far I have:

- Updated the BIOS to latest (1802)
- Rest CMOS
- Updated all firmware to latest
- Installed all available windows 7 updates
- Tried the other PCI slot
- Tested graphics card in another machine (works fine)
- Switch to PCI as primary output in the BIOS

I know the PSU is sufficient as it is the same one I was previously using with this card without issue.

If anyone can think of anything else I'd really appreciate it!

Cheers
 
"- Switch to PCI as primary output in the BIOS"

The card is PCI Express so the BIOS needs setting to that, not PCI

In my BIOS, I had to select "PCI Express" as the primary graphics output since my card is PCI Express.

If you set it to "PCI" the card obviously won't be detected because the BIOS is set to the wrong slot which is empty.

Sorry, lazy typing on my part. It was set to PCI Express.
