Graphics card won’t post at all please help

[Zeke_]

So I’ve been dealing with an issue with my PC.  at first I was confused as to why it would not boot however after a little bit of tinkering and unplugging things and re-plugging things back in I figured out that the graphics card seems to be the problem child and refuses to post. I’m not quite sure what to do but may integrated graphics work just fine.  I’ve only had the card for about a month.

if you plugged the hdmi or display port cable on the motherboard unplug it and put it the cable in the gpu its a common mistake

I’ve done that but the card just refuses to post. The card turns on and gets the fans spinning and what not it just won’t display anything.

Make sure you're using pci-e power and not something else (although other power connectors shouldn't work)

Also try a different port on all devices, since gpu ports can easily be killed by esd as well

How do I check that I’m using PCI-E power?

the cable should be marked

what are the specs of the system?  did the card ever work? 

 

Did you set the graphics card to be the primary display adapter in the bios.  If you are on a modern system with a modern graphics card its possible that you may need to enable csm in the bios to get it to work.

Found my issue, the graphics card had wiggled just lose enough for it to be not fully connected to the PCIE-E slot thx for the help
