computer cant find GPU

perez jens · Aug 1, 2014

hey,

my buddy has a problem with his computer. he did format C on hes pc, and i went to help him cause i know a little bit from computers.

i wanted to help him with installing the drivers. all drivers are installed except the one for GPU. but the computer can not detect a GPU except the onboard from mobo.

so i tried to change the input in the BIOS but it has only 3 options. PCI, PEG and PEG2.

also i tried to install a driver for the GPU maybe it auto detects it then but no result.

it is a ATI Sapphire HD 2600

and the mobo is Gigabyte P35-DS4

so i heard its a AGP GPU, never heard of it thats why i ask u guys.

i hope someone can help

EDITED: Misread post, been so long since AGP port my brain autocorrected it to APU.

AGP is a pretty old grahics port that was replaced by pci-e 10 years ago.

I believe you want to select PEG as the graphics card source and save and restart with monitor now pluged into GPU.

AGP is an older type of connection between the motherboard and the graphics card. As far as I can tell, that motherboard is not compatible with AGP.
If it worked before the format, the only thing I can think of is to make sure you have the monitor cable connected to the graphics card, not the motherboard.
