Solution
If you're adding a dedicated video card for the first time, you were running off the the integrated graphics on the CPU.

Did you go into your BIOS and disable the integrated graphics?

If so, use an HDMI to test on a TV or other display.

try and find another monitor to check....i dont think that the problem is with your card...I'm sure that your monitor doesn't support hdcp..same thing happened to me once with aoc 15 inches monitor.I had to change my monitor..now i have a hp lv1911..it solved the case..

What? That is not correct, the 660 does work on UEFI motherboards.
