My GTX 1080 Isn't Working!!

[ChrisEspi]

I have a gtx 1080 running with an i7 6700k on an Asus Z170-A board and it only posts with onboard graphics. Every time I use my 1080 it will make a signal to my monitor but only to a black screen. I've already tried in one of my friend's computers and it worked fine. I've enabled iGFX and then installed my GPU and I got a Code 43 which mean Windows has stopped the device because it has reported problems.

Delete the Nvidia Experience file completely and re-install. Do not use the drivers that came with it. I had a similar problem with a 1070- once I re-installed I have had no problems.

make sure your monitor is connected to the 1080 not the integrated

is your psu up to running it?

check 6/8 pin connectors are firmly in the 1080

check the 1080 is properly clicked into the pci-e slot

What do you mean by re-install?
