Video card not recognized

[eamundson]

My system will not recognize the newly installed video card. What should I try? ASUS R9290X-DC2OC-4GD5 Radeon R9 290X 4GB 512-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card

Reset CMOS.

Just saw the video card is PCIe 3 however the motherboard has PCIe 2x16. I would think it would still recognize the video card. What go you guys think?

 

[George Mulligan]

Not an issue. 3.0 card will work in 2.0 slot.

I'll give clearing the cmos a go and see what happens.
