New graphics card display trouble.

[Cyrkle8211]

Okay so I just bought a xfx r4890 series Radeon Graphics card seen here http://m.newegg.com/Product/index?itemnumber=N82E16814127427 then I bought a new PSU 650 watt unit and installed both but my displays are currently not working not the DVI's from the card or the VGA on the motherboard so I'm not sure what to do.

Great card in 2009. I'm taking it for granted you checked to be sure it was properly seated and you have the 2 6pin power connectors plugged in. Lets see the 4890 requires a 600w power supply so if your 650w is a real 650w of a good brand that should be good. Usually when a motherboard detects a VGA card plugged in it disables the on board video unless you have it setup in Bios to support it. Did you pull the card the test the on board video? It could be a Driver issue I'd check the blogs and see what driver works best for that card in case the current drivers doesn't support it.

It's a thermal take 650watt PSU. How should I go in the bios to change the settings or to disable some drivers if I have no display though?

Okay I fixed it I just had to take out the CMOS battery for 30 seconds.
