Answer #1
Do you have any option in the bios to disable the built in graphics card?
Answer #2
I have a ASUS P8 Z 68- V PRO motherboard and it has the initiate graphic adapter setting and I have set to PCIE/ PCI. I don’t see any other setting in the graphics department.

Answer #7
Unless you dropped it, if it was working when you pulled it out, it should be working now.
Do you have any other video cards to put in there, make sure your computer is configured properly to work with a PCI-E card?
You can also try your video card in another computer, if you have an extra comp in the house.

I take it you have tried re-installing the drivers for it (even though you obviously already had them installed) ?
The question would be, is it the card dud or the slot in the mobo ?
Can you try the card in another puter ?
Answer #9
I have set to PCIE/ PCI.
what are the other options ?
you look under peripherals in the BIOS to disable it ?
Answer #10
thanks for your guys help but I called EVGA and my card is still under warranty so I’m going to send it back for a replacement.
