    Question New SSD shows up in disk management but can't format it

    Ah, you're correct that it's 500mb. I guess it's not being detected. I have switched ports and nothing. I have another sata 3 cable I can try, and would I have to manually enable the ports through the bios? I hadn't had to do that yet.

    Question New SSD shows up in disk management but can't format it

    Accidentally uninstalled graphics card through device manager, black screen now

    So as the title says I accidentally uninstalled my graphics card (gtx 670) through the device manager. My computer then immediately went to a black screen. I haven't been able to get any display since. I can't even get my on-board graphics (is that what it's called?) to work. I'm at a loss. I...
