Hey guys. I recently purchased the GTX 970 as an upgrade from my old Radeon 7770. When I installed the 970 my computer wouldn't boot, nothing was displayed on the monitor. And for some reason now my pc won't even boot with the old graphics card. The cards are getting power and the fans are running. Every time I try to boot I get 3 beeps, which I believe are for saying the graphics card isn't seated right which it very well should be. What do I do?

Thanks for any help and ideas!

Try booting without the card then install the drivers with the cd you got. install the card back in then boot.
BTW what card are you using? ARE YOU SURE YOU PLUGED IN BOTH 2X6 PINS or 1x6 + 1x8?

I reseated the ram and the 3 beeps stopped. Now I'm just getting no picture with the gtx 970 or Radeon 7770. I seem to not have onboard graphics so I assume that's not an option. On the 970 I'm using 2x6 pins and on the 7770 in using 1x6 pin. Everything is getting power and all the fans are running but no picture still.
