Dear Forum Members:
System is an off-the-shelf HP Pavilion p6-2107c from Sam's with onboard AMD Radeon HD 6530D Graphics. I have 3 of these systems.
On one of these systems the onboard graphics died, so I bought a EVGA Geforce GT730.
When I install the new GPU in the system with the dead onboard GPU, all I get is black screens (connecting 2x DVI to 2x 24" monitors at a workstation).
So I took the GPU out of the unit with the bad onboard GPU and installed it in a working unit. Same black screen problem. Removed the new GPU and started the system back up. Attempted to download the Nvidia drivers for the new GPU and installation fails because it can not detect the new GPU (because it's not installed).
So I'm at a point where I can't install the new GPU. If I do, I get black screens and no opportunity to install drivers. If I try to install drivers before installing the GPU, driver installation fails because there is no GPU present.
Does anyone have a solution?
Thank you.
