GTX 660 TI black screen on start up

[mender5959]

Hi there! So i recently purchased an EVGA nvidia 660 TI graphics card along with the gs500 power supply. I installed both of them into my computer and after trial and error got them both to work. However there was a very annoying flickering going on and i accidently disabled the drivers for my 660TI. Now i can not get it to work. I downloaded driver sweeper and cleared my computer of past drivers however i still can not get my card to work. I plug everything and my monitor just stays black. I have spent hours trying to get this to work while scouring google so any suggestions are welcome!

I actually found a solution to my problem. My monitor wasn't recognizing my graphics card for some reason and after searching the web for a good 6-7 hours i came across something to try in the bios settings: go to authentication, disable "secure boot". then go to system boot and turn csm to always. After that everything's working! I did not come up with this just re-posting in case someone else has the same problem as me.
