Faulty PCI Express Slot?

[ru40342]

Hi all,Recently My PC has trouble booting up. When I press the power button, all the fans spin and everything is normal except the monitor is blank (black screen). When I remove the graphic card and use dedicated graphic instead, my pc boots up just fine.

I have tried 2 working graphic cards and both yield the same results. Does that mean the pci express slot is faulty?

Thanks and apologize for my poor English.

If all the cards aren't working in the slot could be it's gone bad.

Specs?

Do you have primary graphics set to PCI-e in the BIOS? Sounds like it's set to the iGPU rather than the discrete Graphics card

I checked in the bios and the primary graphic initiator is set as PEG/PCI.

Yep, sounds like a dead slot
