Hello, I’ve recently bought some parts and built a computer and after a day I’ve had issue after issue. I already made a thread on reddit and I’ll copy and paste all my info down below. And help would be greatly appreciated!
Hello! After looking around on this sub and online I haven’t seemed to find anyone with this exact issue I’m having.
Last night I built my first pc with the specs being:
Mobo- x570 MSI gaming edge WiFi
GPU - EVGA 2080 TI FTW edition
Cpu - Ryzen 9 3900x
Ram - 32gb viper
Aio h115i platinum cooler
And a 850 power supply from my brothers old computer.
I got it all put together and it booted up great! I took it home and got it all set up on my desk and started the adventure of re downloading all my new stuff. After downloading GeForce experience I (think this was a mistake?) downloaded my gpu drivers as usual. Hit express install and watched as it went black as usual then never came back. It hung for a while and I ended up restarting it. It went to that same black screen. So, I then went ahead and reverted it to a previous windows restore point and went and updated my bios for my mobo. Installed those perfectly fine and went on to windows 10 updates. It got pretty late and I ended up shutting it down and updating to then work on it tonight.
Here I am, and it started perfectly normal and I tried to tackle the gpu drivers again. This time it did the same exact thing. Went right to a black screen. I then turned it all off and pulled out the gpu to make sure it was snug in there. Re did that a few times and it’s definitely in there. PCI plugs are snug in and I’m now at a loss. It won’t boot up, it just hangs on that black screen again. I haven’t tried restoring it to my restore point I set up before doing the gpu drivers but I’m just at a complete loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Update: I was able to restore my windows to default and just started over. I started with my bios and did a full install from dragon center and it’s still working. I diagnosed my pc and it says “NVIDIA USB Type-C Port Policy Controller Doesn’t have a driver”. This was the same error I was getting last night before I tried installing my gpu drivers. I’m now on my GeForce experience and the only drivers available are the before game ready driver version 442.50. This was the same one I tried last night and I’m a little scared to try downloading it again lol.
Update 2: I skipped GeForce experience and went right to EVGAs site and downloaded the drivers and I’m back in the same boat of it hanging at a black screen. 🙁
Update 3: checking my display adapters I’m only getting the basic windows adapter and it’s not recognizing the gpu. One fan is running of the three and it’s all lit up.
update 4: I’ve tried downloading a previous version of the drivers (v 441) and after the first black flash it hung for a bit then proceeded to restart completely. After restarting it checked the disk drive and now it’s stuck on a black screen again. After the black screen it took me to windows to go to a restore point and restarted. I think I’m stuck in a loop.
