Hi,
I just bought an XFX Radeon HD5770 but it is not being detected by my computer. My computer starts up without a problem and I can see the GPU fan is running but nothing comes up in BIOS/device manager or when I run CPUID. I have uninstalled the drivers for my old card (Nvidia GeForce 7800GT) using Driver Sweeper in safe mode and have tried installing the 5770 drivers but catalyst crashes whilst running.
My system stats are:
Gigabyte GA-M55S-S3 (rev 2.0) motherboard
AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200+ Processor
2GB DDR2 RAM (will be buying another 2GB ram this week)
Magna ATX 500W Power Supply with 17amps on the 12v rail
Does anyone have any idea why my new card isn't being detected? Would my power supply have anything to do with it? It's about 5 years old but meets the minimum requirements of the 5770 (450W).
I have no idea why it's not being detected so any advice/help would be great.
Thanks
