CPU: Intel - Core i7-3770K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard: Gigabyte - GA-Z77X-D3H ATX LGA1155 Motherboard - BIOS Version F10
RAM: 16GB Corsair RAM
GPU: Asus - GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB STRIX Video Card
PSU: 450W BeQuiet!
OS: Windows 10
I had an MSI R9 480X for a long time which unfortunately broke so I bought a GTX 1050Ti and installed it in hopes to get back into gaming. Unfortunately every time I turn on my computer I get to the BIOS screen and then it just freezes (I cannot use my keyboard to enter the BIOS). It will just stay on that screen until I power off. The card and everything seem to be running normal (fans spinning and a power indicator on the GPU) I have windows installed and it boots fine with on-board graphics as soon as I remove the GPU and works like normal. I had the same issue with a different 1050Ti. Perhaps my MoBo doesn't support the graphics card but I checked on pcpartpicker and it says they are compatible. Maybe my BIOS needs an update but I know that that can lead to other issues if done incorrectly so I'd prefer that as my last option. I have all USB ports (unfortunately don't have a PS2 keyboard) but I don't think that's the problem as I can access the BIOS just fine without the graphics card installed.
Another note: I didn't use my PC for a long time (~4-6 months), maybe this had an effect on the MoBo settings (battery died) idk?
Help is greatly appreciated
