I was told that this graphics card http://
Would work with this computer http://
After i installed the graphics card i plugged everything back in but wasnt getting any display on the monitor. I tried disabling/uninstalling the drivers on the integrated graphics card. The fan on the card was working if that means anything. I know very little about all this so any help is appreciated.

pre built pc's are a crap shoot

uninstall all drivers before putting in the new card

1 - make sure the monitor is hooked up to the gpu and not the motherboard

2 - make sure the motherboard bios is up to date

3 - make sure in the bios legacy mode is enabled and secure boot is disabled

Thank you for the reply. I was unable to find a bios update for mine. (AAHD2-HY (Holly2) Bios ami 7.07) I was given this computer and was trying to make something out of nothing. It might just be to old as i cant find legacy mode or secure boot in the bios settings. Thank you for the help and if you have any other suggestions, i am willing to try them.
