Hello guys so today I got a gtx 970 installed in my pc.But now I cant enter my bios.It will stuck on the splash screen for about 1 minute and then it show something about nvidia vga bios on the monitor before booting up into windows.

 

The card itself works fine , I can do 2 run of heaven benchmark without any problem and play games.But the facts that I cant enter bios worry me.

 

Thank you for the help and excuse me for my English

Did you try taking the graphics card out of the system? Did you try using a different keyboard? What graphics card did you have before? Did such issue ever occure before the new graphics card? Did you uninstall all previous drivers?

Yes,I tried taking out the gpu and I can enter bios normally. I'll try a different keyboard. I used to had the r9 280x and doesn't have such issues with it.And yes I have uninstalled all amd drivers.

Maybe try putting the new graphics card to a different PCIe slot on the motherboard as well, see if that helps.

 

It seems so strange though that a new graphics card would do such things to your PC.

Apparently it should be a RAM issue, make sure your RAM modules are seated correctly and try to reseat them.

i5 2500k running stock , GA-H61MA-D2V mobo , 600w xigmatek psu , gtx 970 , 8gb kingston ram , 120gb kingston hdd and a 2tb hdd

PSU seems to be off putting to me. Are you sure everything is connected? the PCI-E are connected to the GPU. Ram is seated properly?

I reseated the ram and I think the psu is okay as I never had an issue with the r9 280x which required more juice iirc .

Got my solution , posting here incase someone faced the same problem in future.

 

So I had to update my bios to the newest version

 

For old gigabyte motherboard , you must upgrade the mobo to F6 ver first before updating it to F7

 

Warning : After updating my bios , all my peripherals device are not working except only in bios , so I advise you get a copy of Window or other os for backup in case the same thing happen.

 

Reinstalled the window and proceed to install the gpu , everything went fine after that.
