GPU boot problem

Hello forum members,

today I recieved my new R9 290X DCUII. When I installed it my PC wouldn´t boot. So I tried out different things, bought a PSU tester and so on. 

Then I went into the BIOS to check voltages to compare it to the tester. I went out without changing anything and it started booting correctly. 

So it is until now. Everytime I go into BIOS before booting it works, if not, it doesn´t.

It is not that big of a deal, I would go and sent it back, but if there is a way to go around it it would be nice.

Thanks for the help.

Do fans on the gpu start up or does the system just fail to turn on?

The fans spin up and Windows goes to the loading screen. After that just a black screen and the led´s of my mouse and keyboard turn off.

 

I uninstalled all the drivers before.
