I built a new system for my wife in November. It was my first time using a Biostar Motherboard and at the time I was impressed with how easy it was to get set up.
Here we are 6 months later, and as of yesterday, it started having issues on boot up. The PCI express card seems to not be recognizeed anymore. On boot up, the cards fan runs up to 100%, but it doesn't do anything else. No error codes or anything.
i removed the card and tried the onboard and it booted up fine on the first try. I tried another model card in the PCI express slot and that also booted up on the first try. Fearing the worse for her Graphics card, I tried it in a different PC, but it worked just fine.
I tried removing and reinstalling different Drivers just to rule that out, but it had no effect. I even went so far as to reformat, thinking that she may have installed something that was causing the issue. Even after a full reformat, I'm still running into the same issue.
