New build PC.

Asus H110m-a/m.2 Motherboard
Sapphire rx480 notir+ 4GB GPU
Windows 7 32 bit

GPU has power. Fans spin, and it lights up.
However, it is not displayed in device manager.

Is there something I need to change in the bios to make this appear?

I have tried installing the W7 32bit drivers from the Spphire website.
Install, of the Display Adaptor Driver fails - I assume because the GPU is not detected?

Also, the monitor display works when connected to the RX480 HDMI port

Any help gratefully received...

OK, so I thought I'd answer this, seeing as no-one else has, and I now know the answer.

AMD dropped 32bit Windows support across all version (7, 8 and 10).

I have acquired a 64bit copy of windows and all is now good.
