Problems with my R9 380

[Jimmitybob]

I'm having some head scratching issues with my XFX R9 380, any suggestions would be appreciated. I installed the card in my newly built pc and I couldn't do much, it allowed me to enter Bios but the screen would only be revealed if I moved my mouse. I then tried my gtc 960, and that worked perfectly fine and so I contacted the gpu supplier and asked for a refund. However, I then updated to Windows 10 from Windows 8.1 and the R9 380 began to work, only problem is it only works if I turn on my pc after turning off the plug. I cant just restart the pc, it has to be a complete power down. I'm rather confused, thanks in advance.

What issues?

Hmm what power supply do you have make and model? In fact just post all your specs if you know them.

650 watt, I can't tell you all the specs right now as I'm out but I'm confident that they're all compatible

Is that a bottom of the barrel ebay power supply? Im not worried about compatibility im worried about power delivery.

No its a corsair 650watt modular psu so the power shouldn't be an issue I don't think

That's not that good. Corsair don't make very good power supplies, excluding the enthusiast grade HX and AX series. I assume you have a VS650 or RM650?

Have you tried resetting your BIOS settings? There should be an F-key to reset it to the default.
