Hello,

So I was watching a youtube video and my screen went black, made the sound it makes when something is disconnected and switched over to the integrated graphics chip. I have tested my card in another computer, and it works fine, and put my previous gpu back in. I have tried uninstalling all nVidia drivers and reinstalling cleanly. The cards are being recognized but will not use the monitors. I have also tried disconnecting the screens and putting them back in, and in different slots and still nothing. I feel like there is something simple Im missing, but im at a loss.
Please help.

So you have tried two video cards that work in other systems, but non work in yours correct? The video cable is in the video card correct not on the motherboard? System works fine without the video card? Try a clean Windows setup using a spare drive or something. Test with one RAM stick at a time. Check for a BIOS update for the motherboard, reset the BIOS to defaults.
