Yes, its plugged in. I tried using my 17 inch gateway 720p monitor, a 1080p Samsung monitor and even my TV, via hdmi. Same problem every time.

Just bought a new Sapphire Radeon 6870 GPU for my new pc. Without the card, everything works just fine and I have no problems doing anything with the on board graphics on the i5 2500k. When I installed the card and started up my pc (everything seems to work perfectly), the resolution was...
