Hey Guys,
I have an old gaming PC my friend gave me that I plan on giving to another friend. I formatted it the other day with Windows 10 and for whatever reason it does not seem to want detect the video card.
To try and diagnose the situation I tried to boot into the bios, to see if the card shows there, but when I turn the computer on there is no option to do so. Which is weird I believe when I first turned it on before I wiped it the option was there. My understanding is that BIOS is not stored on an SSD/HDD so I don't think I wiped it. Maybe some sort of UEFI/BIOS compatibility issue? I have tried just pressing F2 or DEL anyways and that does not seem to work.
When I go into hardware manager the video card is not showing. I have put the video card in another PC and it shows up so the card should be fine.
I also tried updating drivers for the motherboard but its all listed as it is only support up to windows 8 so I am not sure what to do there.
It did have Windows 10 on it before I wiped it so in theory Windows 10 should be fine.
Specs:
Windows 10
Nvidia 980 TI
ASUS P8z68-V LX
If there's anymore information I can provide to help let me know. Any direction would be appreciated.
Thanks!
