Which GPU did you have before the GTX 960?

Kim Hakyuu · Jan 4, 2016

well few months back i was using an old gt 220..but then i switch to IGP.. cause i have an APU

So a few things:
- You've plugged the GTX 960 into the PCIE slot, connected the necessary 6-pin PCIE cable and connected an HDMI/DVi-D cable to the GPU
- You basically changed the BIOS settings for graphics/display from iGPU to PCIE
- You've uninstalled any older driver, preferably using DDU so every registry file is removed
- You've installed the latest driver from Nvidia's website

Is your PSU sufficient for the GPU? Which power supply is it?

Just to add you've also plugged a power lead into the '960 from the PSU?

well i already done the first two things you said.. i havent uninstalled any drivers from my IGPU.. and havent downloaded any nvidia drivers yet cause the card wont even post or even the pc doesnt boot at all.. btw my board doesnt have a soundcard so i dont hear any beeps at all

So which power supply you using

Kim Hakyuu · Jan 4, 2016

im using a zalman 600w 80+ bronze PSU with 2 6pins and 2 6+2 pins..and i think that is more than enough

I see you've selected my first post as the solution, but what did you actually do to solve the issue?

Sorry for the very late reply since i solved this problem a long time ago.. it was a pci-e slot problem..thats why it wont post..i think the slot was loose or dirty since its been empty for quite sometime

Ok, and yeah it could literally be everything. Personal help is always better than trying to give advice over a forum. There's only as far as you can go with online help. Good you know what's going on though, and perhaps have fixed it too.

Yep.. thats right mate.. Internet can only help you as much. Anyways Thanks for keeping up with me all this time mate.. Really Appreciate it..
