Hello

I have purchased a Nividia geforce 5450 and I don't know how to install it into my computer .

It has a pci 3 16x slot.

I put the card into the system and the screen is black so I can't see anything.

Can someone please help me find the correct drivers and some help of how to correctly install it into my system .

The computer is around a year old and I can't find anything in the bios.

I don't not know what the motherboard is I will have to check what it is tomorrow.

The motherboard is out of a Packard bell imedia s2870.

how can it be a year old and have a Nividia "geforce 5450" truthfuly I dont even know if those are available in PCI-E, actually im trying to remember if they even exsist wither way if it does Win8.1 wont be supported as Nvidia only go back to the 7000 series for current drivers.

I don't think an FX 5450 from Nvidia even exists... and if it does its like a collectors item its so old of a card... 

Pretty sure any integrated graphics within the past few generations of CPUs have better performance than that old thing.

I'm going to add another 1% to that and make it 100% sure that OP meant the ATI Radeon 5450
