Installing Video Card

I just installed a ATI Sapphire 4830 DDR3 Video card.My motherboard has on
board video,ATI 4200??

I booted up was still using on board video.I uninstalled ATI drivers and
software.The screen blinked and changed to 88x600,looked like safe mode.It
said to restart.I booted up and no video.I tried onboard and new card.I know
it is booting into windows.I can hear the music .
I tried getting into bios,will not go to bios.Now the screen probably is
asking do I want to restart windows or Bla Bla Bla.

What can I do to get some video back .I do not care if it is onboard Just
before I deleted drivers I looked in Device manager
and did not see the new card.Probably because of drivers not installed??It
should of shown The PCI-2 slot.No??

I am running Vista Home Premium 64 Bit
Asus MoBO
Phemnom11 Quad Core 3.2 GHz
8 Gigs of DDR3 memory
Plextor DVD/CD/RW
Blue Ray DVD
750 watt Power Supply
2 Western Digital Black Caviar Hard Drives 750 gigs

I really appreciate any assistance.
If I clear Cmos,maybe I could get into bios but would that help???

Thanks in Advance
Doug

Re: Installing Video Card

You need to get into your BIOS to change it from using the Onboard graphics/
Different MOBOs use different keys to get into your bios.
Watch the Bios post screen very closely to see which key you need for yours
it could be the delete key or the F2 key or another key.

It is not HP. I built the system.



Rosewill RP600V2-S-SL 600W ATX12V v2.01 SLI Ready Power Supply
Phenom11 Quad Four running at 3.2GHz
2 Western Digital Black Caviar Hard Drives
Plextor CD/RW DVD/RW
LITE-ON Black 4X BD-ROM 8X DVD-ROM 32X CD-ROM SATA Internal 4X Blu-ray
Reader
8 GiGs of G Skill Memory

Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
ASUS M4A785TD-V EVO AM3 AMD 785G HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard

The system was running fine until I tried to install new card.

Thanks
Doug

Re: Installing Video Card


you have to set the bios to use ether pice or vga so that the bios can
tell the mother board what to use .

or try to disable it in the control panel and system and look for it
there .

Re: Installing Video Card

How is your keyboard physically connected to your computer? The connection
you are using may not be active at boot time. Recently another user had a
similar problem with a USB connected keyboard.
When I get in the Bios on my systems I start tapping on the correct key such
as the delete key as soon as the post screen appears since it does not give
you much time to do it.

The BIOS does not care about what display interface it is using since all
graphic cards default to 480p which all interfaces and displays accept. It
is not till your OS is loaded and your graphics card drivers are loaded and
then they care about what you are connected to using what resolution(3) over
what interface(s)

Re: Installing Video Card

I tried a PS2 and a USB Keyboard,no Luck.I usually get a screen from Asus
before I have the option to hit delete.It says hit delete to enter Bios and
Tab to see Boot.It lets you see each device as it is checked.

AGood Idea though.
Thank You
Doug

I believe the Bios chip on board must of went????

Any thoughts appreciated.

Re: Installing Video Card

You need to start tapping the delete key as soon as you see any display on
the screen. Don't wait till it suggests it.

Re: Installing Video Card

But you are not allowed to enter the BIOS itself and make changes.
Is there any possibility that you created a password in order to enter the
BIOS?
Do you have the latest BIOS updates for the MOBO from the card vendor
installed?

Re: Installing Video Card

The latest Bios is installed.I have no password.

I can not figure this one out.I would say Bios chip is dead??

The fans start up,the optical drives run and hard drives,when I push the
power button.Screen is Black.

I appreciate the assistance. To top it off I got my win 7 in the mail
yesterday.
