It's powered on, it's in the slot. I disabled my onboard graphics card. I can't install the drivers until the drive is recognized.

I'm not new to asking for help here lol. But I appreciate all the help I've received thus far.

Anyone got a clue?

These possibilities jump to mind: The 6-pin power connector isn't connected, the card is defective, the motherboard (slot) is defective, or the card is not properly seated.

All the above plus make sure you got enough juice on the power supply maybee latest motherboard bios update could help but be carefull last alternative. . Test your hardware with hot cpu tester pro. Good luck

Well the fan is clearly on, it's very audible. I have the connectors firmly in the card. But on the Y connector I have a fan hooked up between it. Maybe that's the problem? and it isn't getting enough power? I'll try it right now just to be sure.
