I just bought a Zotac GTX 960 GPU for my computer.
■ Windows 8.1 x64
■ Intel Core i5 3450
■ 16GB DDR3
■ 520 Watt PSU
The issue occurs after I try and boot the computer. The BIOS screen appears, three beeps will sound over 30 seconds or so, and then the screen cuts to black with a blinking cursor. The fan blades on the GPU "try" to spin but have not spun at any point for more than a second. They start up but don't continue. I have ensure everything is plugged in properly, multiple times. This system does work with a Zotac GTX 650 Ti, and it sure is frustrating have to switch back to it just to try and diagnose the problem. I've tried looking for BIOS updates on the Gateway website (original manufacturer), and flashed it but it didn't seem to update which leads me to assume I already had the most current version. I have also unplugged everything aside from the mouse and keyboard. I'm not sure where to go from here to fix this problem. I'd appreciate any help!
