That's strange.
That's strange.
I’m setting up a PC with an i5 2320, 8GB DDR3 RAM, a HCupertino 2 motherboard, a Zotac GTX 760, and a 500W power supply. It doesn’t boot with the GTX 760, even though other components function correctly. I ran an HD 6670 and it worked too. No one else seems to have encountered this issue. Could there be something specific about the GTX 760 I should be aware of?
I've already tried that. The fan reached its maximum speed and the screen didn't show anything. My 760 runs smoothly on another PC, but my GTX 770—an expensive card needing more power—functions just fine. I thought it might be related to a BIOS setting in the PCI E legacy mode, but I haven't adjusted anything. Just to be sure, all components are operating normally.
This situation is odd. It seems the system tries to install or verify a basic driver during Windows setup, but hardware problems stop that process. On the other machine, it might be using the standard Windows drivers. When a GPU has issues, the drivers often vanish and the card stops working with the installed driver. Try updating the driver and observe if the card behaves differently. A safe boot can reset drivers and help stabilize the PC. Good luck!
