Hi,
Hoping someone can help. I bought an Asrock 990FX Extreme4 motherboard and an AMD FX-8350 core black edition, 4 GHz, 16 MB processor to replace some old equipment. Been a few years since I did this. Unfortunately when I hooked it all up my graphics card didn't want to work. Is this because it is not supported with the newer motherboard? My old graphics card is a BFG Tech NVidia GeForce 9600GT.
The rest of the system appeared to boot correctly (though its hard to tell when nothing displays on the screen). I didn't get a response from the card at all not even BIOS. I have tried to look at Asrocks website to workout if it is the graphics card that is the fault but I'm finding it lees than helpful.
I have now had to rebuild my old machine and the graphics card works, so at least i know I didn't fuse it when I was changing it over. Really would like someone to give me some help as don't want to outlay money for a new graphics card if tht is not the problem. If it is want to make sure I get one that will work.
Thanks in advance.
