rolli59 :
There have been some issues with new PCIexpress x16 v2.1 in older v1.x motherboards can you post all your specs so we can see if that is a possible problem. Then again there is always a chance that the card is DOA.
Hey Rolli!
Had it boxed up to return...I've tried everything 10x, and keep getting the same errors and mis-boots(freezing on start-up, blank screen freeze, and my personal fav...No signal/no display!) as everyone else on here.
...and yes its an older (2007) motherboard.
Here are my specs...
