I have tried two Geforce GT 730 cards from different manufacturers (from Asus and Zotac) in two different machines, and couldn't get past the BIOS in either case. There's no video at all with the first, and the second freezes when I try to enter the BIOS. I tried to update the BIOS but it looks like I'm at the most recent version in each case already.

One system:

350W Power Supply (Rosewill RV350-2 350W ATX 12V v2.2 Power Supply)
ECS H61H2-MV Motherboard
Celeron G1610

System two:

RAIDMAX RX-635AP 635W ATX 12V v2.3/EPS
ECS H61H2-I
Core i5-3470

System one works fine without the card. System two works fine with a Radeon R7 260X.

I can't talk to ECS because their support form is just giving error message.

Any ideas?
 


I'm saying the GT 730 card freezes at the BIOS in one system, and it produces no video at all on the other system. I tried a different GT 730 and it did the same thing in each system.
 
I was able to make it work by turning on UEFI only boot options (manual settings) and changing/increasing the IGD memory settings. No idea why that would help, but it booted right up.
 
I have same problem. Previously I had EN9500 GT. but when I tried to plug in a 720 GT the bios does not work. system starts after 15 minutes or so. It just gets hanged for 10-15 minutes. don't know why. but when once the system starts, it works fine. my motherboard is H61.
