I just recently acquired a Gigabyte r9 380 (GV-R938WF2OC-2GD (rev.1.1) gpu which I have placed in my ancient computer from back in 2007. Specs are:
CPU: AMD x4 9550
Mobo: GA-MA770-DS3P
PSU: 550w Antec Edge
Ram: 4G
HDD: 620GB
Windows 10 Pro 64 bit
and so forth.
The original mobo driver cd only had working audio drivers (native to Vista) but still worked.
When I installed the GPU drivers from the original CD, it installed but when i dxdiag it comes up with 'Mircrosoft basic Display adapter'. To me this seems like it did not pick up the 380 gpu. When trying to open the Gigabyte OC GURU program it does not open either.
I have noticed on the Gigabyte website they only have windows 10 32bit drivers available and NOT 64bit. I installed the windows 8.1 / 7 64 bit version.
Whwn trying to open the 32 bit windows 10 version it said it was not ocmpatible with my 64 bit version.
Is th 32/64 the problem or could it perhaps be the 2007 mobo is too old to recognise this gpu?
I have also checked whether it was a power issue but both my 6 pin are connected (12 pin in total) and the power rating seems to be ok for this.
Any known solutions or even a finger point to a 64 driver version?
