Hello everybody I need some help.
I built my pc in November and only now bought a gpu [msi gtx 960 4gb] anyway when I installed it and turned on my pc I am only getting a black screen so I looked up how to fix this and one of the answers was to disable the igp through the bios however my bios is glitchy[in the form of it being zoomed in and freezing after I click on settings].

I have tried to update it through msi live updater and it had no difference so I then decided to reset the cmos by pulling out the battery and then even after the reset my bios is still glitchy.

So I am asking you beautiful people for advice on how to fix both my problems since I do not want to dish out money to get it repaired [bios and gpu]
Thanks.

You shouldn't have to disable the IGP in the BIOS. Are the PCI Express cables from the PSU connected to the GPU? Did you connect a monitor to the GPU? If so and you don't get a display, then test it in another PC to make sure it isn't defective.
