Alright I took out my Grahpics card yesterday to take out the cmos battery. Anyways. I plug it back in. I turn on my pc and my monitor has very look contrast? I think thats the word. It looks.. depressed? very little color. I go to run<dxdiag and my graphics card isn't listed under video.

I have a powercolor raedon 7870

It seem the device manager knows it running and says its working properly but in "dxdiag" it doesnt show up.

You start up your pc and press the Del button or F1 to enter BIOS, once there look for "Primary graphics adapter" option or similar, it's location varies from BIOS to BIOS but usually is under advanced options or chipset options, set it to "PCI-E" instead of "iGPU".


How would I do that? I
