COMPUTER WONT DETECT NEW GRAPHICS CARD (Help ASAP)

[Elli0tLee]

Hey, I'm a little new to pc's and I bought a new graphics card a Nvidia Geforce GT 730 to upgrade from my AMD Radeon HD 7540D intergrated graphics. I plug it in to the slot and booted my pc up. I tried to download the drivers for the new card but failed due to not being able to identify the card. It's not listed on the display adapters tab and I tried disabling my intergrated graphics and installing the driver but it failed because i get this error screen that the computer cant detect the new graphics card for the driver. Im using windows 7 32-bit, Processor: AMD A6-5400K APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics (2 CPUs), ~3.6GHz, using a inland silver series 500 watt psu, and idk my specs on the motherboard. ANY ANSWERS OR SUGGESTIONS WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

It's most likely a motherboard issue, go into your bios, look around and see if there is anything about PCIE or graphics cards.

Sorry but I have no idea how to do that. Can you explain it to a noobie like me? Also the fan on the graphics card is running so idk if that means the motherboard is compatible, if the psu has enough power, etc

perhaps it needs to be set as a primary graphics? should be somwhere in 'advanced' > 'video/graphics' > 'primary video adapter' should be set to PCIE/PEG something like that
