    Well I selected the drive but it still didn't work, until I tried it just now and it magically fixed itself

    BIOS Update

    DERZ posted a topic in Troubleshooting

    So today I needed to do a BIOS update on my MSI Z68A-G43 (G3) motherboard because of some issues I've been having with my new graphics card. After what I thought was a successful update, my PC does not want to boot now. It just shows the MSI logo thing where you can press Delete to enter the BIOS over and over. I can enter the BIOS and it doesn't look like anything is wrong in there. What should I do? Cheers

    (For those still interested) I had the card tested, turns out it works perfectly. So I'm off to do some more testing/research

    Also, I just remembered, last year some time I used a friend's GTX 275, which according to hwcompare.com, has a higher TDP than the 270x. So I think my PSU should deliver enough power.
  13. DERZ
    I didn't touch anything. I mean the PSU still works when I remove the 270x and even when I reinstall my old card.

    Yes, fans all spin (case, CPU and GPU fans). Display stays off.

    So today I bought a Gigabyte R9 270X from one of my local shops, but when I installed it, my PC wouldn't boot. The screen doesn't even come on. Is there a way I can test if the card is faulty? Or do I take the card back? System specs: PSU: 520 watt Vantec iOn (Note: the card only requires a 500 watt PSU (apparently)) CPU: Intel i5 2500k (stock clock speed) RAM: 8GB Corsair Vengeance 1600mhz 2x HDDs 1x DVD Drive Any help/advice would be much appreciated
