Hi there,

After my old GTX560TI card got fried earlier this week i decided it was time for a new video card.
Bought the MSI GTX760. after replacing the old video card with the new and hooking it up, my pc won't go past the post screen and juist gives a B2 error in the bottom right corner of the screen.
After some google madness, i found out the B2 error might be cause by a outdated bios.
Underneath are the things i have already tried (with no succes)


    1: Updated my motherboard's bios to the newest revision


    2: Removed all drivers from my old video card


    3: Switched the card between 2 PCI-e ports on my motherboard


    4: Memtested my RAM (no issues)


my system speccs are as follows:

Motherboard: MSI Z68A-GD65 (G3)
CPU: Intel i5- 2500K @3.3Ghz
RAM: G.skill ripjawsx 8GB
Videocard : MSI GTX760
OS: WIndows 7 sp1

Another option i found while searching for the problem is to update the Videocards BIOS.
I am going to try installing a friends videocard tonight to check if the PCI-e slots arent just broken.
Any tips on this subject are more then welcome. Hope my new card isn't DOA.
If you need more information i am more then happy to supply it. i appologize for spelling errors i am not a native english speaker.

thanks upfront
