Posted October 30, 2014 It should work, you have a PCIe x16 slot. Maybe you got a DOA card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 30, 2014 Ensure your screen is on the correct input. Do it manually even it if it is, sometimes they don't switch properly or wake up right.

Posted October 31, 2014 Author Ok.... Im going to try that?? @djdwosk97 in the bios I go to port security and it has all the connections.... It says enable next to them. Does that mean it is asking if I want to enable them or if it is already enabled??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
