Hi guys,
So I recently found some junk items that I didn't need and though about giving it to my friend. I fitted 400W Mercury PSU which works as well as added thermal paste and cleaned out his PC by getting the dust out and cables more optimized.
Now when I put the GPU you in and turn it on, the fan moves but I get no signal. Even after I installed latest drivers and disabled (also tried uninstalling) the onboard graphics. I took the 8600GT home and it works fine on my PC so it must be some setting on his PC.
He is using 7100 nForce630i onboard
Iv fitted 8600GT 512MB
His mobo is something Aspire 3XXXX.. or 5XXXX... from around 2004-2006
He is using Vista32
Any suggestions what I could do? I tried to look for some gpu options through his bios but didnt find anything.... Maybe some jumpers on the mobo that disable onboard?
What could be wrong, please help me
