Hi,
I have an asus m2n4sli motherboard.
Running windows 7 pro.
I installed an Asus GeForce GTX650-E-1GD5. (My old Radeon x800 gto works fine on win 7 but not win 10). So I bought the new card so I can upgrade to win 10. I Installed in the PCI E 16 slot. Power comes from motherboard only.
When the system boots (win 7 pro) the card is not showing in the device manager or the bios.
Asus says the card is backwards compatible. I posted on here and someone said the motherboard and card are compatible.
Only thing showing in device manager is the stock microsoft graphics.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you

ok

step one-uninstall any amd drivers or software in programs and features
step 2-download GeForce experience on nvidias website, heres a link to the download- http://www.geforce.com/geforce-experience
step 3-install it
it will auto detect your hardware and you should be able to install the proper game ready drivers for your gtx 650
also the windows 10 free upgrade is ending this month, so I advise you get it while you can.

I used the cd that came with the card. AMD catalyst. That didn't do anything for me. So, I don't need to see the card in the device manager to go and download GeForce experience? I'm confused. I thought the computer had to see the device hardware before you could download a driver.

AMD catalyst is a program for AMD radeon GPU's not NVIDIA. you need to go to the NVIDIA website to download the right drivers for that card

Can I download the driver even though the computer isn't seeing the hardware? That's where I'm confused. I thought the hardware had to show in the device manager first then you download software for it.

well, you can always download the drivers and see if they will install. if it is really not able to detect the card it will tell you during the install

Thank you very much Gianni and captain.
It worked perfectly.
I updated my windows 7 drive as well as my windows 10 drive (use win7, learning to use win10)
This site is great for novices like me.
Someone always helps.
