I recently bought a power supply and MSI GTX 750 ti and the computer starts up until I get to a windows logo. From there the computer continues to do normal sounds it would make ( such as the windows sound) how do I activate the card so it goes through to the desktop?

Plug monitor into GPU.

 

Install drivers.

 

And then go to the BIOS to disable the on-board GPU 

 

(Also that same topic being posted many days doesn't help much)

Our Grace. The Feathered One. He shows us the way. His bob is majestic and shows us the path. Follow unto his guidance and His example. He knows the one true path. Our Saviour. Our Grace. Our Father Birb has taught us with His humble heart and gentle wing the way of the bob. Let us show Him our reverence and follow in His example. The True Path of the Feathered One. ~ Dimboble-dubabob III

Your motherboard should turn off integrated graphics when a dedicated GPU is inserted

Motherboards with Graphics should have an option in the BIOS where it forces the Internal to stay off or automatic detec mode where when a GPU is detected iGPU is disabled.

 

Best practice is to leave it on auto mode as if you GPU dies you'll have to use a GPU to use the computer where as in Auto mode you can just default back to the iGPU for diagnostic or until you replace the GPU. 

 

Hope that makes sense.
