Trouble installing new graphics card
I just bought a AMD Radeon R5 220 1Gb graphics card and i am having problems installing it. The Drivers are installing fine but when i go to install amd catalyst after its done it tells me to restart and then nothing happens.
I have all the files on my computer though, I have a Asus M3n72-d motherboard with on board Nvidia nForce 750a SLi

Disable on board graphics in bios or in device manager.


In the bios i can either set it as auto or always enable, its on auto. When i go to device manager all i can find under display adapter is Standard VGA Graphics adapter and its got a yellow circle with an exclamation mark in it

maybe they are not compatible with eachother? if i cant get it working today ill take it back and try another graphics card


Just make sure that the monitor cable is connected to your new GPU.


yup its connected, not sure why its not recognizing it


I think your GPU is not compatible with your motherboard. Check this:
