    Booting from Intel HD

    Hey guys So I recently uninstalled my Sapphire R9 380 and now I want to boot from my i7 4770's integrated graphics. For some reason it just gives me a black screen. Any tips? Do I have to reinstall Intel Hd and if this is the case how would I do that?

    R9 380 fans not working!!

    Damn. Ok I'll look into that, thanks for the consistent feedback and advice man. I'll try and remember to update this thread if I ever get this fixed, just in case someone in the future has a similar problem.

    R9 380 fans not working!!

    For some reason I couldn't access the bios. It said the bios is corrupted and then proceeded to update it and restart. I kind of found a way around the fans not working on their own though. I set the fan speed in msi afterburner to a constant value, but whenever I play a game, after like 10...

    R9 380 fans not working!!

    I've already tried uninstalling all fan monitoring programs. It didn't change anything. This just went from frustrating to crazy. First off, this graphics card is definitely seated correctly. When I tap the graphics card like you'd tap a morse code machine, the fan starts fluctuating between...

    R9 380 fans not working!!

    Ok so while I was waiting to put the graphics card back into my brother's computer, I decided to reinstall my 7870 driver just in case I needed to use that again if my 380 needed to be RMA'd. Something very unexpected happened. My fan actually switches on now, but it only turns on between 75%...

    R9 380 fans not working!!

    Okay uninstalling/reinstalling software didn't change anything. Yeah they move but they stop again -- the rotor doesn't take over once you give it a nudge. I was so careful when removing and installing this graphics card, I just can't believe that it is damaged. It was working fine in my...

    Didn't work. Card's fans just twitch every few minutes. This is so frustrating.

    R9 380 fans not working!!

    Okay I'm going to re-slot the graphics card and make sure everything (including the power cables connected to the gpu) is seated correctly. Then I will boot in safe-mode. I'll check in afterwards. I'm confused as to what you mean by the fan plug? The R9 380 only has two power cable slots and...

    R9 380 fans not working!!

    Hey guys I recently got a motherboard, i7 4770 and a Sapphire R9 380 4gb from my brother. The graphics card worked fine in his computer, with the fans going on as soon as the card reached 60-65 degrees centigrade. He was upgrading his pc, so we very carefully removed the motherboard(with...

    Computer hiding my HDDs when I insert an USB

    I tried running chkdsk on an other pc once. Froze and screwed the pc up. I'd prefer not to do chkdsk if that's possible. Any other suggestions? Is there anyway my computer's event viewer might help? Since it logs errors?

    So I checked safe mode out, and I think it works. Unless I was lucky and the pc didn't freeze for some reason, I think the problem doesn't occur in safe mode. Sweet. So what now? Oh yeah happy new years
