Did you plug in the 6 pin PCI-E power connector? If so, what was your old card and what power supply do you have?
BTW, 10 minutes is a bit soon for bumps.
Is your monitor on the correct source? Some monitors give the option to have different displays plugged into. My Samsung has a Analog and Digital source button.
@ the other reply, I didn't uninstall the drivers of the old GFX Card
That's what is causing the problem then I think. You should always remove previous drivers from your system. I think it is mentioned in your product manual.
Plug your old card in and uninstall it's drivers. After that put in your new card and install the latest Catalyst drivers.
I believe so as well, but let's say it still doesn't work, then what ?
One step at a time. Eliminate this possibility first.
My Mobo only supports up to 512MB of memory, the card is 1gig, problem solved.
how does one find out how much video memory their motherboard can handle?
because i am having the same problem.
it does, and it does.
once i reach the 5 post minimum, i'll be able to explain my problem in more detail.
