[SOLVED] Gtx 980ti and Maximus V1 Hero

[joshnipshank1998]

Hey there,

So I am having trouble with having the NVIDIA drivers detecting my GPU.
When i go to install the driver, it tells me that it couldn't find the gtx980ti, i went through with contacting NVIDIA support, and they couldn't figure it out, well they said that they will get back to me. They recommended that i should check my bios version, and i found that it says its currently on version 1301, the latest is 1603. Could that be the problem?

Ok... i would actually do this:

-Download DDU Display Driver Uninstaller
-Run DDU and Restart your PC
-Download Geforce Experience from the Official Website
-Let it update and install all drivers needed.
-Restart your PC
-Enjoy

In case it didint work you can also try this:
-Download DDU Display Driver Uninstaller
-Run DDU and Restart your PC
-Open Device Manager from your Control panel
-Search for your Video card and Remove it. Then click in Scan for new devices and let it recognize your card
-Click on the Card device propieties and click the Search for New Drivers buttom
-Restart your PC
-Enjoy

Hope it helped you

Turn off pc.

Make sure the monitor cable is actually plugged into the 980 ti, and not the motherboard.

Turn pc back on, and try drivers again.


A lot of the time if you are accidentally plugged into the integrated graphics it will disable the graphics card so it wont show up to the system.

Yes, it could also be that it is not Fully shoved in the PCI-E slot too.
