So I just got a card that I had RMA'd back, and it still doesn't work.

I tried it out on both PCI slots, and the fans won't start when I turn the comp on either.

I also somehow managed to lose the installation cd, so I tried installing the drivers via Gigabyte's site. My motherboard's bios also doesn't seem to realize that there's something plugged into the machine.

Mobo:MSI Z87-G41 PC Mate

The fans are not spinning and the system is not seeing it although Windows loads, you need to test the card in another system. It's either the card or your PCIe slot. If the card works in another computer, it's likely you PCIe slot. You'd want to test another card in your system to verify.

This is insanely late, but I tried updating the Mobo and nothing. I THINK i disabled the IGP, but as I am still using it somehow, that's probably not the case.

...I just realized what the DGP setting on my mobo stood for.

Anyway, yeah, it's not working even with that setting on.

I tried both pci slots, and no luck. the card itself isn't even showing up in the BIOS menu.

Drivers for the GPU? I've been using the drivers from here, because the installation disk (As well as any other comp I can test this on) are at home and I'm currently at college.

I updated the bios, but not the CPU.

Ah, wait. I checked Live update, and there's a thing called Intel Chipset Drivers under MB drivers. Did you mean that?

Edit: I tried that, and still nothing.

I can boot into windows just fine- I think the card's not even being seen by the system and so it's defaulting to the onboard as a result.

My bios has a section that lists what's plugged in where, and this card is nowhere to be found.

PSU is Diablotek EL series 500 watt (PSEL500)
