I'm not quite sure if this should go in Graphics catagory or this one...
I recently got a new Motherboard and CPU but when my new MOBO arrived the graphics card no longer seemed to work. I currently have the Display onto my monitor plugged into my Graphics card but the graphics card does not appear on screen. It seems to be invisible. I have no idea whats wrong. Apparently in the manual i must "Change the necessary BIOS setting" and then "Assign an IRQ to the card" I don't get these steps. I tried doing the IRQ thing but there is no options for it in the BIOS and i changed it so PCIe x16 slot is the primary device. It is really confusing me.
I can't play any of my games since it thinks i don't even have a graphics card!
I'm running on:
Windows Vista Home Premium 32-Bit
AMD Athlon II X4 620 2.6Ghz
Corsair 1333Mhz 2GB Memory
XFX Geforce 9800GTX+ Black Edition
Asus M4A785T-M MOBO
UPDATE: OK, i just figured out that it knows my graphics card is there but now i'm just trying to make sense of it...
