hi,
This has been driving me around for hours. I literally have spent 4 or so hours trying to fix this. It was all working fine, but my WiFi card was giving me some grief so I went to put a spare in. Didn't really think too much about it and did it whilst it was on. My computer was running fine still, however the card wasn't being picked up by windows so I restarted it. After I had done this, my GPU just would not respond.
As soon as I press the power button, the GPU fans spin for about half a second or so. After that, there is no response. No output either, however it does still get warm. I checked the card without any power cables in and just plugged into the MB and it has electricity running though it. Both the 6 pin connectors have the correct voltage. It is placed firmly in the PCIe MB. I have no idea why it suddenly won't work.
I have disassembled the entire PC, plugging only the CPU, GPU and PSU in, same issue. I have the back of the GPu off and cleaned with cotton buds, no luck there. Tried different 6,pin connector, however only have the one pcie 16 slot.I cannot get it to start for more than half a second, and there is no output. I can still access my PC through the onboard graphics however I am a gamer so this isn't that helpful. Windows doesn't even recognize that the graphics card is there! Its been working fine for about a year or so, not sure what the issue is.
AMD Radeon 7870 by Gigabyte
Amd fx 8320

Could anyone shed some light?
