Posted October 21, 2023 I have a guy who wants to buy my GT 1030 for his Lenovo ThinkCentre. I went to his place and installed it, but it only showed a black screen. I couldn’t even get into BIOS when using the GT 1030 as a display and even when using the iGPU when the gt 1030 is still plugged in, the only way i could get into bios is by removing the GPU. I also changed the video priority in the bios to use PCIe, but it didn’t work. Are there any solutions for this? Is it incompatible ? I tried to install GT 1030 drivers on windows, but they couldn’t install because I guess the GPU is not being detected. It’s not showing on the task manager or on the device manager when I use the iGPU with the GPU installed on the PCIe slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I tried it last night on my own PC, R5 5600, GA-A320m, it works okay, do I need drivers from Lenovo and not From Nvidia, because I found this on lenovo's website but the list doesn't include GT 1030, do I need to install this driver? Edit: GT 1030 still working now on my PC, currently using it Edited October 21, 2023 by JonJonz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 21, 2023 No, you just want the official nvidia driver F@H Desktop: i9-13900K, ASUS Z790-E, 64GB DDR5-6000 CL36, RTX3080, 2TB MP600 Pro XT, 2TB SX8200Pro, 2x16TB Ironwolf RAID0, Corsair HX1200, Antec Vortex 360 AIO, Thermaltake Versa H25 TG, Samsung 4K curved 49" TV, 23" secondary, Mountain Everest Max Mobile SFF rig: i9-9900K, Noctua NH-L9i, Asrock Z390 Phantom ITX-AC, 32GB, GTX1070, 2x1TB SX8200Pro RAID0, 2x5TB 2.5" HDD RAID0, Athena 500W Flex (Noctua fan), Custom 4.7l 3D printed case Asus Zenbook UM325UA, Ryzen 7 5700u, 16GB, 1TB, OLED GPD Win 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
