    PC won't boot from disc drive

    Hi thanks for your reply. I accidentally stumbled across the solution myself only moments after posting that question. Turns out my old mobo was set to IDE drive form as standard, where as my new one was at AHCI so it couldn't boot. Just changed it back and all is working fine now. Thanks a lot...

    PC won't boot from disc drive

    Hi all, don't really know if this is the right thread but I haven't found any solutions anywhere else. I recently received a motherboard with a faulty PCI. Slot. I sent it back and bought a new one (Asus p87zz v LX). Posted fine and when I tried to boot windows (and do a system repair) it didn't...

    Graphics card works in PCI 4 but not in PCI 16?

    Could it be that one of the pins connecting the card to the PCI slot is damaged or broken on the card?

    Graphics card works in PCI 4 but not in PCI 16?

    Hello, My graphics card was not working in my PCI express 16 slot, but when I put it in the PCI 4 slot it works fine and boots ok. No image was being shown when in the PCI 16 slot on my monitor but it does in my PCI 4 slot. Would this be the PCI slot being bad or the graphics card that is not...

    Power supply enough for my build?

    The problem with my card is it doesn't display any signal from any of the sockets when connected to my monitor, where as it does when just using the integrated graphics from my motherboard.

    Power supply enough for my build?

    Ok thanks a lot. As long as I know it's not down to my PSU it's all good. Will try RMA my motherboard.

    Power supply enough for my build?

    So your saying my PSU is not the problem and is most likely a motherboard fault? This is what I initially thought but wanted to check if that was enough power.

    Power supply enough for my build?

    Hi all, I've been having some issues with my graphics card. My whole system works ok apart from my graphics card. The fans spin up but no signal is produced. The card does indeed work as I tried it in a friends PC. I thought it would either be the motherboard is defective or that my power supply...

    Hello, i have the Gigabyte GA Z77 D3H motherboard and a sapphire 7850 OC graphics card. My problem is that my motherboard does not seem to recognize the card. I initially thought that my graphics card was the problem, but after installing it in a friends PC with an ASUS motherboard it worked...

    Will my PC pick up GPU without drivers?

    If I connect my DVI or HDMI cables to it without the AMD drivers, and with the default Microsoft drivers you mentioned, should I get a signal at all?

    Will my PC pick up GPU without drivers?

    Hi, I am only new to the world of building PCs and have quite a noobie question. I have built my PC, installed windows 7 and my motherboard drivers but my graphics card drivers won't instal properly and i believe they are put of date. My system doesn't even pick up my gpu as being there and I...
