Hello,
Yesterday I received an EVGA GeForce GTX760 SuperClocked graphics card which I ordered off of amazon, and a Corsair Builder Series CX 600 psu. I hooked everything up to what I believe was the correct places (I have no hardware experience/background), and everything worked fine except for the graphics card. The psu works just as it should without any problems.
Once I insert the graphics card and start up my pc however, it goes to the boot screen and pauses, followed by 3 beeps, then the screen goes black and I have to turn it off. This is the first graphics card that I have bought seperately, which is supposed to replace the onboard one that came with my computer. Removing the GTX 760 and starting up my computer works fine so that's what I assume to be the issue. I disabled the onboard video driver before inserting the GTX 760 too.
What can I do to fix this, and for the new card to work properly? Perhaps it is a compatibility issue?
PC Specs:
CPU - AMD A10-5700 (4 CPUs)
Motherboard - MSI 2AE0
RAM - 10GB
GPU - AMD Radeon HD 7660D
OS - Window 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Thanks,
TyGuy
