Problems with AMD Graphic cards

[scott.begg9th]

Hi having problems with getting my biostar a960d+V2 motherboard reading AMD graphic cards, so far I have tried hd7770 and Rx560 both are powered up fine and fans spin and they both work in other computers now I can use my GT 1030 or gtx 660 ti no problem can any one explain why this is? I have used ddu to remove drivers did not work and every time I boot it just wants to go for the hd 4290 built in

Build:
fx8350 @4ghz
12gb ram
120gb SSD
Biostar a960d+v2

If your display is connected to the motherboard, it's using the onboard graphics regardless of whether a graphics card is installed or not.
If your display is connected to a graphics card output, it's using the graphics card regardless of what anything else tells you.

Hi I understand that but how does that help me? I have tried plugging the DVI cable into the graphics card obviously

Are you getting a "No Signal" message when the display is connected to the AMD graphics card? What's happening on the screen?

Hi yes it goes onto standby mode that's the monitor

What is the model number of the display you're connecting to?

It appears that display only has a VGA (D-Sub 15) input. Are you certain you are using the DVI-I ports on the graphic cards? DVI-D will not work without an active converter.

Yeah and it does work as I used it with the gtx 660 ti

Not sure why NVidia Geforce cards are working and AMD Radeon cards are not. The only think I can think of would be something along the lines of interference with the on-board graphics.

I'd probably check your motherboard BIOS and change the chipset setting for the Primary Video Controller and try different settings there:

GFX0-GPP-IGFX-PCI (Default)
GPP-GFX0-IGFX-PCI
PCI -GFX0-GPP-IGFX
IGFX-GFX0-GPP-PCI

Pg 24 of the BIOS Manual - ZIP File.
