[SOLVED] Issues changing my HD7950 to a GTX1050TI

[Vearna]

So after many years my HD7950 broke on my second computer. Figured i'd switch it out for a cheap Nvidia card so i bought a GTX1050TI.

When i switch out the cards my computer wont even boot up. Cant get in the BIOS either.

When i put in the old card it boots up but crashes after a bit due to the defective HD7950.

When i use the GPU on the motherboard (intel HD4600) my computer boots up without any issues at all.

I bought the MSI GTX 1050 TI OC edition. It doesnt need a separate PCU connection.

Motherboard is a GA-Z77x-D3H.

Anyone got any idea's?

Kind Regards,

Did you delete all of the old GPU drivers?

yup, as far as i know atleast. How to properly check it?

Ok, i re-installed windows after fully wiping the drive. Still nothing.
I also tested the card in my other computer, that worked without any issues....

Any help would be much appreciated!

Turns out the BIOS was outdated. Quick update and its working again.
