Hi, new build PC, made the same PC for my son as my own:

 

  • Asus Z390 Mobo - New (same as my own PC)
  • Corsair CX750F RGB, 80 PLUS Bronze Fully Modular ATX Power Supply - New
  • i7 8700k - Old (same as my own PC)
  • 980 TI - Old (from my working PC)
  • 2 x 8gb RAM - Old (same as my own PC)
  • SSD & HDD - Old (same as my own PC)

Have spent around 6-8 hours trying to get the new build to recognize the GPU:

  • It powers up, the lights are on
  • It is in PCI Slot 1, but the UEFI/BIOS doesn't recognize it is in
  • On start up the fans spin but stop after a few seconds
  • I have replaced the cables
  • I have tried the other PSU (the only hardware difference from my own PC)
  • Tried PCI Slot 2
  • Reset the whole PC (drives are from the old one)
  • Tried downloading GeForce Exp. and the drivers (won't install due to not being recognized as having a NVIDIA GPU)
  • Reset the BIOS settings
  • Tried another working GPU, Quadro P2000, same result (works in my PC not in the new one)

I am certain the card is seated properly, that the card works and that the fault does not lay with the PSU. Could it be a Windows 11 issue? My PC is running 10, that literally is the only difference. Going crazy trying to work this out...!

 

Any thoughts or help would be appreciated, thank you.

Thanks. Is there an easy way to do this? Nothing obvious on the sytem.

From a psare system (ie your existing win10 PC) download a program called Rufus. Also download, right from MS, a copy of win10 that matches the license key you have (home/pro/etc) and use Rufus to install to a USB stick.

 

Insert USB stick into new PC and boot off it... 

NOTE: I no longer frequent this site. If you really need help, PM/DM me and my e.mail will alert me.
