Hi all
Recently purchased the above card and cannot get the card to install. If i connect the card to my system and turn the power on I cannot even get the bios screen; power is feeding to all devices including the card as both fans are spinning. turned my pc off unhooked the six pin connector and connected to the on board graphics and my pc powered up normally. Once I was back into windows I connected the six pin connector and tried installing the drivers from the CD; the drivers will not install (previous ATI drivers had been uninstalled). By the way there are no beeps registering when the 7850 is seated. Also tried with the on board graphics disabled and no luck. Outside of reinstalling windows I am at a loss about how to combat this problem. All my other cards work fine - 550ti; HD 5570 & HD 5770.
Quick spec's
i3 2120
8Gb 1333 Ram
Windows XP, 7 & 8
Gigabyte B75M - D3V motherboard with PCI-e 3.0 support
500 watt psu
Should also mention that I removed the cmos battery which made no difference.
The card is not detected when using the device manager
