Black monitor screen when I install my GPU in my motherboard

[Team Rocket]

Hi,

I got this problem where if I put my GPU in my motherboard and run my pc (everything else works fine) the monitor screen won't display anything. And when I remove my gpu and start my pc the monitor is working without any problems.

Now I am wondering how I should fix this. I got this CD driver with my GPU and do not know if I should first install it before putting the GPU in place, so it will work, although it wouldn't be logic to do that.

The very first time I started my pc with the GPU in it, the monitor did show up everything.

So, should I just download the GPU driver first and then put my GPU in my motherboard or is that not the problem? If it isn't, what is?

I had a similliar problem if i remember right you have to go in bios and change gpu to legacy mode

What does Legacy mode do exactly?

I dont remember, but it happend to me when i bought a new gpu card when i sticked the new one in i couldnt get any visual did some research most of them said run on legacy mode so i gave it a try and it did the trick

The most common mistake is not moving the monitor cable, from the motherboard connector to the Graphics card connector.
