So I found an old mobo with a decent enough CPU in my stuff for basic gaming for my little brother, got some fresh ram and SSD and it POSTs like a dream, like wiping and not having anything on the paper except for 20 minutes of not realising something irrelevant with pre allocation but it’s good now.
Anyways I plug in a respectable 1050ti and she works with the basic display adapter, then I got her drivers on there and the screen goes black as it downloads (from Nvidia website, don’t have an optical drive on hand rn).
So I assumed it’s doing the <Mod Edit> “5 minute fix that takes 2 hours to find” and I leave it a bit in case it was just changing resolutions. Nah she still don’t work so I restart the PC and still the basic display. So I set the integrated graphics on and at least it can run 1080p, just can’t do gaming on it. I download the drivers and all, I hop on device manager and it says “error 43” whatever it said after. So I see if drivers need updating and they’re apparently up to date, so I do some windows updates (mobo updates not available, just like a better one with my budget), and I download this and that but nothing works.
I got a 500W PSU so that ain’t the issue
Mobo:
F2A55-M LK
GPUs:
GeForce 1050ti
Radeon HD 7560D (integrated graphics)
CPU:
AMD A8-5500 APU
Some kind of SSD I don’t feel like checking and it hardly seems relevant
16GB DDR3 RAM
so yeah I’m kinda debating an RMA but the basic display on it works so idk
