I aimed to upgrade from gtx 960 to rx 400/500 series. All the rx series GPUs I tested didn't show up, even after changing PSUs from the repair shop, using ddu and updating BIOS, GA-H61MS2P Rev. 2.0 PCI x16 Version 2.0.

Attempt a CMOS reset followed by installing the AMD card. My previous Z77 Extreme 4 wouldn't work after changing the GPU without a reset. I think my P67 Extreme 4 followed the same process.

Thanks for replying. I have indeed tried that but no result. Though if that Z77 is older than my motherboard then I still have hopes to make it work somehow.

Modern graphics cards need a UEFI bios to be recognized. Your GA-H61MS2P was released around the time when legacy bios was shifting to UEFI. Legacy bios is black and text-based, while UEFI appears colorful and resembles a webpage. You might have an option in the bios to manage a UEFI card. If your bios isn’t up-to-date, check for an update that could resolve your problem.

Use of licensed AMI EFI BIOS
Seems to be a UEFI BIOS. Appears to be a Beta version with the note: Improve High End Display card compatibility, could be worth trying.
Previous BIOS models weren't monochrome; they offered a range of colors—blue, gray/white, yellow. Likely 8-bit color, though many didn't fully utilize it. Primarily for broad display compatibility, it would work on monochrome screens or low-resolution displays.

I offer choices such as boot mode: Legacy-UEFI and another that lets you choose between legacy or UEFI OpRom.
