Hello guys... I just installed a new gpu 1050 ti to my pc. It shows up during boot but when I get to windows and open device manager, it doesn't show up.

And then noticed that in the Other Devices, there's a PCI Simple Communications Controller and Unknown Device when I check the show hidden devices option.

What I already did:

-made sure the gpu is properly seated
-download the geforce experience from the nvidia website but after I tried installing, it doesn't open up
-updated to latest bios
-enabled igpu in the bios
-forced the primary display to PCI


And any other ways to fix this?

Thanks

You do have your monitor plugged into the graphics card out correct?

Try just installing the Nvidia driver and not the geforce experience.

What 1050ti is it? Some require a 6pin power from you PSU.

Hello. Yes it's an HDMI cord.

I tried installing the driver directly and it still won't start. It just extracts the driver then nothing happens. Btw, I run a windows 7 64bit

It's an inno3D 1050ti. My psu is 650w
