Hi
Things are not going too smooth for me. I recieved my new gtx 980ti today and popped it into my pc (replacing my 2 gtx 670s). When I hit the start button the pc tries to boot but restarts after about 3 seconds and the second time it stays on, all fans are spinning and the graphics card is glowing as it should BUT my screen doesn't get any signal.
So I then plug in a single gtx 670 to uninstall the old drivers but that didn't work either. Tried to boot into safe mode but still the same result. FYI the computer restarts after 3 seconds every time I switch card.
Anyway, the next thing I'm about to try is to update my bios but the live update 6 wouldn't work for me, keeps telling me v. 2.00 is installed no matter how many times I install 2.C0 or what it was. According to MSI's website my z77a-s01 isn't SLI compatible (even though you can see the SLI mark under the #1 PCIe slot) http://eu.msi.com/product/mb/Z77AS01.html#hero-specification. But I know for a fact that it is. Does this matter? Will the update break my motherboard if it is made for non-sli motherboards?
Also if you have any experience with my original problem and info that might help, I will be so happy.
Thanks
