XFX HD7950 Drivers not installing .

[SavvTheWild]

Hi im Savvy .
Im a 14 year old teenager who decided to make his own PC .
I`ve had to settle with a Upgrade because a new CPU wouldve been to expensive .

Well, About my problem .
This is my Rig .
Intel i3 2120 3.1GHz Proccesor .
Acer H61H2-ad Motherboard .
Kingston HyperX 6GB Ram 1x4 and 1x2 Modules .
XFX HD7950 3GB GDDR5 GPU .
And atleast .
an Aerocool ap-550 550 Watt PSU

So ive had a lot of problems with this rig .
First of all Ive had problems with my PSU .
Ive dropped a screw into it and then there was this huge spark .
Wich messed it up and i got a new one send back .
Then I had my Case Sprayed in a custom case mod .
And after that my video card didnt work .

I`ve send it back but the company I bought it from says it worked perfectly fine when they tested it and they sent it back to me .
I dont know what to do now ive tried to install all the drivers even from the site .

It just doesnt work and it isnt detected either .
Also to avoid confusion
Ive made this pc out of my Old
Packard Bell iMedia S2870
Wich is now no longer available since Acer Bought Packerd Bell .
And no I do not live in Canada , (Since most people With Packard Bells Live there ) Im Dutch .

Please help
Thanks , Savvy

Did you connect all the PCI-E power cables from the PSU to the GPU? Is the monitor connected to the GPU?

Check the bios - You have to tell it to use the new video card in the bios or it will default to the on board video proabably.

I did do both of these things . And it is connected to the monitor .
Its defaulting on PCI-E As soon as i put the videocard in .
So yeah
