Install new GPU and PSU and am stuck at BIOS splash

I purchased an HP a bit over two years ago (Summer of 2012). The computer is an h8-1240t. I had selected the i7 3770 CPU, 300W PSU, 8gb RAM, and a GeForce GT 530. 
I am replacing my card with a MSI GTX 970 GAMING 4G card as well as a new 500W Corsair CX500M power supply. 
The install went fine. I made sure all devices were firmly seated in the slots. When I was finished I powered up my computer and found that I was getting stuck on the BIOS splash screen where it tells you to press 'Escape' for options. If I leave the power on it will eventually make a few intermitent beeps and eventually go to a blank screen with a dash in the upleft corner. 
If I am quick enough, I can press 'Esc' and get to the BIOS settings, but then the computer becomes stuck again and same thing as above happens. 
After having those issues I put the older GT 530 card back in and everything powered up as normal. 
Is this possibly an issue with my motherboard? Here is a CPU-Z screen shot http://i.imgur.com/VDaLmlZ.jpg
Any help will be appreciated as right now that $350 card is as good as a paperweight hah.

Yes it's an 8 thing. The only solution I have seen is to flash the video BIOS on the video card. Video card manufacturers are aware of this issue and many have made a video BIOS available which will make the card work with older systems. You would obviously have to do that on another computer. Also some video cards have a hardware switch on the PCB board that lets you switch the video BIOS from true UEFI (Win8) compatibility to legacy compatibility. Look carefully for such a switch.

    First, note that this is a user-to-user forum. If you want to contact Adobe, you'll need to call or write them on their main site.
    That said, as the note says at the top of the forum, you're going to have to provide us a lot more information if you want us to help you. "Stopped working" doesn't tell us much. Does this mean that it was working in the past but then stopped? What stopped? What did it do that it's not doing now? What were you doing when it stopped? Was it when you were adding video to your project, for instance?
    What operating system are you using? If Windows, have you manually gone to Windows Update and made sure you've got the non-critical updates, which don't download automatically to your system? Have you ensured you have the latest version of Quicktime, per the program's requirements?
    How fast is your processor, how much RAM do you have and how much free, clean, defragmented space is on your hard drive?
    What model of camcorder is your video coming from and what format and resolution is it? Did you use Premiere Elements to get the video from your camcorder to your Premiere Elements project?

  • Installed new iTunes 8.1 and no library

    I installed the new version of itunes and now my whole itunes library is gone...
    I had some music under MY music and I put most of it back. But when I tried to sync my ipod it said my ipod is already synced to another library. But it isn't. Same computer...
    ???

    Check the songs are really not in the Music section of the library by clicking the magnifying glass in the search box and unticking Search Entire Library if it is ticked, then typing in the name of the album. If the tracks still don't show try closing iTunes and deleting a hidden file called sentinel from inside your iTunes folder. This should make iTunes run an integrity check on the database when you start it again. Make sure the tracks are checked before you try syncing again.

  • How to install new version of safari and delete old one

    I am not sure what pieces of info are needed to help me so please be patient. Basically my hotmail is no longer working, telling me I need to download a new version of safari so I downloaded safari 3.12 however it is still not working on hotmail. I am not sure how to apply/install the new version of safari and get rid of the old version. If anyone knows how to help me...it is much appreciated...be specific as I seem to be mac-******** at times
    Thanks.

    Hello ec:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    As far as I know, you cannot download Safari and reinstall it successfully. Install Safari from your software install DVD and then run software update.
    I do not use Hotmail, so I have no information about that platform.

  • Installed new Audigy 2 ZS and tons of hiss

    I used to have onboard AC97 sound running from my computer to my Adcom amp to my speakers. Prior to installing the card I disabled the onboard audio in bios and made sure everything for it was removed in Windows. All was fine until I installed the Audigy 2 ZS. On any setting (everything muted, turned down and so on) there is a loud hiss. It doesn't matter if I mute everything or not it is still there.
    System is:
    Abit IC7 Motherboard
    Windows XP with SP2
    Radeon 6800 GT OCMessage Edited by ncrosanct on -05-2004 03:46 AM

    Ncrosanct,
    If you have another system available to test the card in you might want to try the card in another system to see if the hiss continues on the other system. If it does, or if you don't have another system to test with you will want to contact Technical Support to arrange a repair for the card. Their contact information is found on this page:
    http://us.creative.com/support/custsup
    If the hiss goes away on the other system make sure that you have tried the card in all of the available PCI slots and that the onboard card is completely disabled in the BIOS (some systems have different sections of the card listed in as many as three different sections).

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    When you uninstall, the items you uninstall and the order in which you do so are particularly important:
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
    Let us know if following that article and uninstalling those components in that order helped the situation.
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
    Take care,

  • Pc wont boot after installing new gpu (Gigabyte GTX 770 2gb)

    Hi , I just bought a gigabyte gtx 770 2gb and my pc is stuck in the bios screen and beep every 10 sec , i think the bios version or the pcie isnt recent enough ,
    Specs: HP - pavillion h8-1040
    Mobo :IPISB-CH2 (Chicago) Pegatron
    Intel core i7-2600 3.40ghz
    10go of ram DDR3
    650w PSU
    If its my motherboard what motherboard will u recomanded me to instal that will fit my case , GPU , ram and processor 
    Thx in advance ( im french sory for bad english )
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I have the same mobo as you. What version number are you on bios wise? I have 7.12 As for your friend. HP does do frequent hardware revisions. Especially with their mobo's. So, he could essentially have a different version than both of us. Try to grab some info if you can using CPUZ and post results for mobo. Here are mine. Pay close attention to the model # and compare his with yours. Another thought. Depending on gpu brand and the bios they use. They might be more legacy bios friendly along with full UEFI support as well.
    Some might only support full UEFI. Let me give you an example. I have a EVGA Superclocked GTX 660. They released a bios update for the card to support full UEFI. I flashed it and guess what? My PC would not boot up any more. Not compatible with the newer video bios. Thankfully before flashing. Since I had a bad feeling about it. I backed up my previous original bios and was able to restore them using another pc. Then putting it back in my pc. Booted up fine and works perfect again.
    I am also curious. What might be the exact GTX 780 your friend is running? Brand and model wise.

  • Stuck at BIOS splash screen

    I own a lenovo b570e model 20713.
    I was trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 on it, and after installation I rebooted.
    Now the computer is stuck at boot splash screen, will not let me press f2 or f12. Just hangs there at the splash screen.
    Any suggestions?

    Did you perform a clean install of Ubuntu following the instructions on the Ubuntu forums? There are specific steps required to install Ubuntu on a system that uses UEFI instead of legacy BIOS.
    You can try removing battery and AC power, then hold down power button for more than 30 seconds to reset the UEFI settings.  Once completed, reattach battery and AC power, then enter UEFI and disable Secure Boot.
    Good luck.

  • Can't install newer versions of iTunes and can't un-install current version

    HELP!
    That's a good start to my first post I think lol... hey at least I'm still laughing, even though I feel like crying!
    I am having (probably similar to many from what I can see from this forum and also from google search) problems updating my iTunes to the latets version.
    Whenever I start to install the new version I get a message pop up saying that iTunes64.msi can't be located, even though it does exist in the default filepath it throws up anyway.
    After doing some Google searches I saw that a way around this might be to use the Windows Unintaller Utility, however, I have yet to actually find this utility, particularly as Microsoft now appear to have removed all traces of it from their site as it seemd to be causing other issues.
    Next I found an article on Apple that said that if I am having the problems that I have stated above then I should unistall various apple software items in a particular order with iTunes being the first on the list.
    This is where I am now stuck! I can't un-install iTunes from Control Panel as it says that it isn't installed! Of course it is installed, however, it would appear that something somewhere is corrupt and it doesn't actually think it is really installed (I think my PC is suffering a sual personality... maybe that's what dual core really means lol).
    The corrupt nature of my iTunes installation would also seem to be borne out by the fact that the icon in the list of installed programs for iTunes is not the normal icon but a blank (unrecognised) icon.
    I am now clean out of ideas as I can't do any of the "normal" things to remove and re-install iTunes and so I could really use some help/advice.

    Hi Katrina
    Thanks for confirming my suspicions on the use of (or rather not) of the utility on Windows 7.
    I also tried as you suggested to run the iTune64.msi file from it's location... it almost looked like it was working but then came up with the usual message saying it couldn't find the .msi file.
    I even tried copying the file to another location but it still hit the usual error
    I have a horrible suspicion that I am not going to get this sorted short of doing a complete re-install of my OS (which I don't fancy doing, particularly as at least iTunes is functioning anyway).
    I am already planning to move away from Windows PCs and move onto a Mac in the very near future, so hopefully in the intervening time Apple won't release a critical udate to iTunes that means I need to update to continue certain functionality.
    Roll on Mac-Day for methinks
    Of course if anyone else can think of any solutions for me to try in the meantime then I would be more than grateful to hear from them and to give it a whirl.

  • Install new OS into desktop and laptop?

    I haven't opened the package yet, but I bought Tiger last night at an Apple store and am hoping to install it on my G5 iMac and my Powerbook laptop (I'm traveling soon).
    Do I have to go back to the store and get a Family Pack for an additional $70? I wasn't able to upload the new system and had to buy a new one, but his hurts.

    A single-user license only allows you to legally install on one CPU at a time. Installing on more than one CPU at a time is a violation of the license agreement.
