Video Card not being recognized

Did you disable built in graphics from bios? Where do you connect you display input? On 6870 or built-in graphics?

I don't see any options to disable integrated graphics in the bios. And whats the display input? I only have a PCI-E cord plugged into the 6870

Im having this exact same problem except i have an emachines 1831-07 that im upgrading. I uninstalled Nvidia drivers and put in the card and started up but its not recognizing the card and it won let me disable the chipset in bios.
Also I got a XFX Radeon Hd 6850. If i put in the driver disc it says that it does not detect a XFX product in my system.

He means that did you connect your monitor to the actual card? Also make sure you plug in both the PCI-E power connectors on the card as it requires it to work. This card requires 2 PCI-E power connectors.

What is your mobo?

So you put your monitor cord into 6870?

Oh i didnt see that my video card had a vga slot coming out of the back of my computer. But the slot on my card is different than the vga port on the mobo so guess ill need to buy a matching cord. Thank you

The card should have come with a DVI to VGA adapter if you are using a VGA cord for the monitor.

Ya i just found a white cord thats fits into the monitor and card!

My video card a has port lablled vga at one side

K tell me what happens because my vido card is still not recognized

I turned on the computer but it says there no vga signal and nothings on the screen

Load optimize default from bios. If not work, then disable build-in graphic from bios.

You should use your own thread. Its Tom's rule.

There is should be an option in bios to disable built-in graphic. Post your motherboard model.

Its a Z68MA-Ed55 msi mobo

Try reset to optimize default from bios. Try reseat the card again.

But the scrern is pitch black it wont show anything

So you cant get into bios or cant see anything? Remove the card and install it again.
