Sounds like a bios update is needed for the GPU and/or the motherboard. What's your mobo?

Sometimes that happens. Sometimes other members just really don't know how to help. I took a chance and did some research because you seemed like you were in quiet a pickle.

I was sad too. Because i worked for the money to buy it. Then waited 12 days till the 1060 was here and then i plugged it in. It said b2 and i spend over 8 hours to figuren it out

Ah ok, can you mark the first reply as the solution then, for any users searching this in the future.

Yeah the one thing about build computers is that when you boot it up, you're basically crossing your fingers that everything works right. And that doesn't always happen. But that doesn't always happen so that's why we have this forum. Now you'll probably be able to help someone else who has the same issue you did.
