New GPU, No display

[ZeroInfinity94]

Morning all,
Well I finally bit the bullet and get a 1080, happy days right? Nah not that simple.
Dropped it in last night and no display on my other two displays.

So more info.....
Card is a GTX 1080 made by Gigabyte and its the windforce OC one.
Connections used for the displays are:
HDMI
Display port (DP to DVI)
DVI

Now the problem it's self.
I put the new card in and boots up very very very slowly and reboots a time or two. Get into windows and there's only video on the display connected by HDMI which I put down to a driver issue, uninstalled the drivers using DDU and restart. No video at all on any display.
Pull the 1080 out out my 1060 back in and still no video.

Any one have any idea of what's going on here?
If you need more info let me know and I will post it if I have it.

System specs:
Ryzen 5 1600
MSI Gaming Pro Carbon X370
8GB 2400Mhz Kingston HyperX
Samsung 840 EVO 120GB RAID0
RM1000X PSU

Cheers.

Don't use DDU. You really don't need to any more. Just check "Perform clean installation" or whatever the option is. It sounds to me like you've borked Windows and may need to install now.

Any idea how to get some form of video output to get into the windows install?
I have absolutely no video output right now.

Have you tried safe mode?

 

[ZeroInfinity94]

No, I have no display output at all using the new card or my old card.

Then you've either dislodged or broken something. Or it has gone into a panic.

How to fix.

Remove 24 pin cable and EPS. Press the power button a few times, just to drain any power out of the PSU. Remove battery, then clear CMOS (either with a posh button on the IHS or with a jumper). Leave for a minute, then reconnect and try again.

Is there a chance that the 6+2 pcie power i had hooked up could be the problem as well?

Not if it were inserted correctly?

uninstall the nvidia drivers in safe mode
reboot back in normal mode
let windows auto install the drivers and reboot

download CCleaner, and fix your registry issues

download the latest drivers from nvidia (not from the discs) and install those

He has no display at all.

Definitely put them in properly.
Reseated them about 6 times as well

He has no display at all.

so how do you if the system is even booting correctly!!!

perhaps it is not the GPU at all... maybe another cable (eg: boot drive cable) has been dislodged while the GPU was being exchanged.

I don't, because he has no display. Until he gets it back then god only knows.

Read the thread dude. He's already said that he put the 1060 back in that worked perfectly previously, yet still has no display. That is why I told him how to reset a motherboard "panic" so that is what he should be trying next.

Right just to update this thread....
Got it sorted. Still not got the foggiest to what happened but I pull the PCIE cable out and replaced it with another on and installed the NVidia drivers and now am up and running so only thing it could be really was that cable for some reason.
Anyways thanks everyone for the help!
