GTX 660 Problem

[Grimmeh]

I uninstalled the On board graphics and my GTX 660 MSI OC does not respond to the monitors, yes the VGA was connected to the GPU when booted up but its still not responding to the Monitors, when I uninstalled the Integrated GPU(APU) it was on the same resolution. The Integrated GPU would only respond if the GTX 660 MSI OC is off the motherboard. My motherboard is a AAHD2-HY(Holly2).

Any Ideas?

I did receive word that the Mobo does support the GTX 660 and My computer is an APU. and the computer model is the p6-2376.
And My PSU is 500w EVGA 80 Plus

I would try reinstalling your graphic card driver.

For the GTX 660?
No drivers were installed for it because the Nvidia Software could not detect the GTX 660, but when I try to use the GTX 660 it wouldn't respond to the Monitors including the on board one unless I take out the GTX 660

Well it needed to be detected, the GTX 660 was not in the Mobo, but when it does it would not respond to monitors

Now I'm confused. I was asking to reinstall the drivers for the GTX 660. I assumed that the GTX 660 is installed on the motherboard.

It was installed in the motherboard, the problem is the GPU would not respond to the Monitors, like it won't display, the computer does have Integrated Graphics, I tried to Uninstall/disable it and could not work, the only VGA that responds to the Monitors is the On board graphics.

The monitor works OK with the integrated graphics? If so then the problem may be that the GTX 660 is defective. Do you have access to another working PC that you can test the GTX 660 in?

No and the GTX 660 does not respond with the monitors is because of the APU Graphics keeps re-install/enable and I do not know how to prevent that and I would go through BIOS(Windows 8) and there is no option to disable it. I did device manager and it would do great but it will keep re-install/enable automatically which prevents the GTX 660 from displaying.

How do you know that the GTX 660 works? If it was not working, the system would default to the integrated graphics.

Well I would install it, connect it, boot it up and it would not respond to the monitors, while the GTX 660 was still installed to the motherboard, I tried the Integrated Graphics VGA and that would not respond either

Here are a couple of check lists:

So I can turn off the PC, reinstall the GPU again, boot up with the VGA connected to the Integrated Graphics this time, would it work?

 

[terry4536]

I don't know. Try it.

 

[Grimmeh]

I don't know. Try it.

Nope, Im not sure what solution

Have you tried the check lists? No video output is fairly common.

When I saw the check about Integrated Graphics, thats what I did and nothing happened, just no display between the Integrated Graphics and the GTX 660 when its installed to the Motherboard
