Sure thing! Here’s a revised version of your message:
Hey everyone, to sum it up: I purchased a 3060 on eBay and set it up in my system. Everything worked fine until after about three seconds, when the screen went black. I tried lots of fixes—switching systems, reinstalling drivers, updating BIOS, doing a clean boot, unplugging USB ports, etc. The only thing that helped was installing the latest drivers. Once they loaded, the screen stayed on for a while before going black again. I’m hoping someone can assist me.
Details: My system is an Asrock B550 HDV AM4 with a Ryzen 5 3600, 32GB DDR4 RAM, 650W PSU, and Seasonic 650w PSU. The BIOS version is 2.3, and I’m in Germany for the newest updates.
Consider starting Windows in safe mode to verify the BIOS version of your GPU. Visit the provided link to check the BIOS details. Look for warnings or error code 43 in the Device Manager. If you have an older card, it might work well as a display and you can install the 3060 in another slot. This could be suitable for mining if it supports the right BIOS version. For more guidance, refer to the resources shared.
It starts up but shuts down when using Windows, suggesting a software or firmware problem rather than a hardware fault. The system doesn’t power off normally.
Hey, thank you very much, Yes that is my card, the person owning it before assured me they didnt change Firmware on the card and i believe them, but it might still be a problem i guess. I dont have a second Graphics card slot, but i got a Ryzen 5 5600G anyway so ill try to get some info out of it tomorrow that way. Hope to update y'all soon, thanks a bunch already!
