The meat and bones of the PC:
Now thats about the stone skinny of the bones of the pc now heres the issue im having
1. I bought this:
2. When put into the PCIE port i got an empty screen. Just black. Only an amber light where it should be blue.
3. Now that was happening when I had the DVI cord from my monitor plugged into the Graphics card.
4. That also happened when I plugged the DVI cord from monitor into the Onboard Graphics while the card was still installed.
5. So I take out the 750ti and plug DVI back into Onboard graphics to look at bios.
6. So I went into my bios
7. The Primary Video Adapter is already set to PCI-E without the card being in the computer ?
8. Meanwhile at some point before putting in the Card I uninstalled all the Drivers from the Athlon and even used a software that prevented it from reinstalling when I booted up again until I said it should reinstall.
10. Needless to say I was still faced with this black abyssal monitor screen.
11. Also there are no PCI 6 pin connectors on this card because all it needs is to be plugged into is the PCIE slot. So I didnt miss any connections because I was confounded with the card when I first had it and it took me quite a bit to trust that I wasnt missing anything and that the card was ok without being plugged into lol.
I think that might be all the information i can share. Hope I didnt forget anything.
One more thing i do want to mention though to save us all time. I heard a few things about incompatibility of HP Integrated Graphics with 700 series of Graphics cards I think ? Heres where I saw this
Now if that is quite the case then I was also wondering... I know it may be 700 series but would this card work? I know I might be answering my own question here but hey its worth a shot maybe there might be a small crucial difference?
