please can anyone tell what is wrong with it
and what is the solution
my pc is working with my build-in intel card on my DG31PR board
thnx i hope to get some tech solution for that

it can be overheating, clean it and make sure it free of dusk, re-apply the thermal paste...
If after that your card is still couldn't boot up then your card is dying.

i have cleaned my card but it still not working, when i install it my card fans runs giving out a noise of small magnitude but my card is not detected

 

[wa1]

Have another computer? or friend's? u can try it there...
If still not working then i think your card is dying...

Okay, just choose the right card for your need and make sure u have a good PSU to handle it...
But wait, just try this first, try reseated the ram and try on each of them, see if that help.

ok thnx i try to do
any good suggestions the card i should buy and How much PSU

 

[wa1]

Your current PSU?
how much do u want to spend?
Are u gaming?
What is your monitor's resolution?

 

[spender]

400
120-150$
big time gamer
1366*768

 

[wa1]

Your PSU, what brand? model?

 

[spender]

PC power and cooling Silencer PPCS420X 420W ATX12V 80 PLUS

 

[wa1]

okay, your PSU is good, just take a look at this as an example:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150316

only $110 and Minimum Power Supply Requirement: 400 Watt
Your PSU came with 6pin power connector for pci-e card, right?

and if u want an ATI card:

your PSu would be enough to powered these cards...

 

[spender]

thnx for ur help does these card all games out there now

 

[wa1]

for your resolution(1366x768) then u can max out most of any games out there with that card...
But it depend on your CPU too...
U will see a big jump performance from 9500GT to 9800GT or HD 5750.
Make sure these cards will fit on your case.

 

[spender]

i go for 5750 and also upgrade mu psu to 600w bcz i have seen some where that it requires that much power

 

[wa1]

what brand PSU? choose a good brand like corsair, antec, ocz, silverstone...
