Old motherboard with new graphic card

Hi to everyone.

My PC specs:

Intel DP55WG

i5 760

8 GB RAM 1600 Mhz

HD 6870 (now dead)

ASUS R7 360 OC

 

My old graphic card is dead, so i bought brand new. I Installed it, and the computer won't boot with that card. I put one from friend and it work perfectly, everything boot in order.

I put this new one again, and the same problem.

Graphic is working perfect on other computer.

They say to me, that it won't boot because the BIOS wasn't updated so long, that it doesn't recognize new graphics card.

 

My question is: IF my BIOS is updated last in 2011(which is last official), does that mean that only video cards made before that year will work with my motherboard.

I want to be sure for buying new one graphic card.

Yes, everything is cleared of old drivers.

Only option that is left, is to reinstall windows 7.

But i can't see the connection with windows when the boot stop at this place: dg45id_09_thumb.jpg(

 

Displaying the 5A error on display, and freeze on that place, i can't even get into BIOS, nothing work, except CTRL ALT DEL.

Bot on MB displaying E6 error.
