Hi;
I have bought a SH gfx card from CeX. When the card is inserted the PC will not boot. I tried installing the nVidia Drivers without the card installed but the installation will not complete because it cannot find a valid card.

Its an ASRock FM2 board with an AMD A6 CPU and Crucial Ballistix RAM.
 


It would power up but no display whatsoever. I did some fiddling and managed to get boot into windows. Then I tried to install the latest nVidia driver package and it failed. After some googling I found a solution on Freewisdoms here about running a utility called DD.

Even though I had already uninstalled the previous drivers it did its magic and I managed to install the Geforce Drivers and the card is working. The only problem now is that the PCIe 6 Pin Power socket is protutuding outside of my Antec Fusion case and even with a R/A adaptor I don't think the lid will fit on - time for some cutting?
