GeForce 2700 GS
Hi :)
First of all, the model of the card is correctly specified in the title. It's not 7200.
So I got this card which was working fine in another PC that I don't have anymore, always running Windows 7 x64. It's a pretty basic graphics card, 256MB. The main reason I wanna use it is that it has DVI output.
I have an Asrock N68-VS3-FX motherboard, with the latest BIOS (1.80). Running Win10 Pro x64.
I put it in the PCIe slot and the system doesn't seem to notice it's connected. It does not show in the device administrator or whatsoever, there's nothing with an exclamation sign either. I made sure it's properly connected. When turning on the PC the fan of the card spins. If I plug a monitor there's nothing to see.
These are the steps I have already tried:
- remove the card and clean -again- thoroughly with compressed air the slot in the mobo and the pins in the card
- make sure BIOS is set to use PCIe as primary graphics card (instead of PCI or onboard)
- I have UCC activated so I changed between the different overclock modes (Auto, CPU PCIe Sync., CPU PCIe Async.)
- doing a CMOS reset by short circuiting the pins and configuring again the BIOS options
Is there anything else I could try? Is it that it is just not compatible with my system?
Thanks in advance.
