Problem with new graphics card

[SecretX]

I've just bought a new graphics card and new PSU, an R7 360 and a CX450W (grey label), but I can't get any signal on my monitor. The card is plugged into a MW-H61H2-M2 with a i5 2300 which never had a graphics card until yesterday. The fans of graphics card spins just fine and I can't figure out what can cause a problem like that (no signal on the monitor). Although the monitor can't get signal when plugged direct into the graphics card itself, I can make the PC works if I plug the HDMI cable into the integrated graphics jack. Do you guys have any ideas, I mean, how can I get this problem fixed?

Have you checked your BIOS settings to make sure that the PC is set to use the PCIe video card instead of the iGPU?

check your manual, sometimes pcie slots have lower power specs than usual (75w), when that happens your card might not boot.

My BIOS doesn't have a config like that, I've digged it all and couldn't find it.

The manual doesn't have anything related to pcie voltage.

update bios to the latest version, it's an issue with some mobos that they won't support newer gpu with ancient bios.

Where I have to go to update my motherboard bios? I couldn't find any option related with bios update.

Worked! I've updated the BIOS and got my graphics card working, thank you!
