Trying to boot with GTX 970 and getting no signal..

Installed a GTX 970 and since then the PC will switch on but I can't even get to the BIOS screen. If I take the card out then it boots fine.
I've tried updating the BIOS and drivers as far as I can but I am now stuck as to what the problem could be.
The lights on the card also come on but the fans don't spin.
The build is currently:
MSI Z97 Gaming 5 motherboard
Intel Core i5-4690K
G-Skill 4Gx2 Ripjaws DDR3 2133MHz
Samsung 840 EVO 250GB SSD
MSI GeForce GTX 970 4GB Twin Frozr V Video Card
Corsair Builder Series CXM 600W Modular 80 PLUS
Any help would be appreciated.

I would:
I assume this is a single card install?
1. Check card in another PC (if possible)
2. Check PS connections
3. Check PS's ability to output enough wattage
4. Try different monitor connection/cable
See where that takes you... and report back

Pc wont boot with gtx 970

I bought msi gaming gtx 970 around 6 months ago and it worked flawlessly until today. I opened my pc to clean it up a bit, and removed the gpu from the pci-e slot, and the next time (1 hour later) I put it back in it just stopped working. Display led is just flashing and shows a black screen, no bios splash screen or anything. The logo lits up and fans start spinning for like 10 seconds and then just stop. Everything is seated as it should be. Also, it was all tested on a 750w psu. Same thing happens when the 6 and 8 pin connectors aren't connected.
I've tried my old gtx 260 and gtx 570 and they both work fine, and also I've tried gtx 970 in an older pc with 500w psu and the same thing happens.
Is it dead or what?
Specs:
msi p67a-c45
intel i7 2600k
2x8gb kingston hyperx 2133mhz
silverstone strider 750w psu

Well, if other vgas do work in the same machine but the 970 will not work in that machine it worked in before and won't in another machine as well it is dead. Rma it.

P67A-G43 select boot device issue with GTX 970

I recently tried to install a new GTX 970 and ran into an issue where I am asked to select the boot device every time I boot the pc. I uninstalled the driver for my video card before installing it. The system appears to be stable once it boots into Windows. However, when I swap back to the GTX 760, that was in the system previously, it boots straight into Windows without having to select the boot device? I have seen lots of issues on the forum about the 970 and older boards but nothing specific to mine. I am currently have BIOS version 1.A0 installed. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Yes, you need to update. Following the below updates to latest official bios (5.4 aka E7673IMS.540)
>>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
A.) Download >>this archive<< and place it on your desktop. Do not decompress.

Tried to install lion on Macbookpro and getting a smart error message?

Tried to install lion on Macbookpro and getting a S.M.A.R.T error message, software up to date and enough free memory

Do you have the 10.6.8 (or whatever came with the machine) install DVDs?
If so you need to boot up with those and run Dusk Utility off the DVD. Check the S.M.A.R.T status at the bottom of the Disk Utility window when you have the MBP's disk selected. If the status doesn't say Verified the disk is on its way out its already dead. It needs to be replaced.
If it says Verified then do a Disk Repair on the MBP's disk. Note any errors you get and rerun Disk Repair until you get no more errors. If that doesn't happen the disk needs to be replaced.
All this cos I bought an iPad and wanted to use iCloud!
The install hasn't caused this. The disk was going no matter what. Its a good thing that you did the install and caught the error or else you might have lost your whole system.

Trying to boot with WindowsXP CD to repair installation from console ?

I installed XP a long time ago. Now the installation is bad, so I am trying to boot with my WinXP CD to get to the repair console. But at the prompt "press any key to boot from CD" its stuck, and doesn't seem to recognize any key input.
Oddly, when I remove the CD, I get the error saying it can't boot due to a disk failure, which is the error that I am trying to fix.

I did that, the XP disk was a choice. I clicked and it did the same thing - it went into the black screen with a prompt asking to press any key to boot from CD.
Seems like the keyboard is not active at that point because I can't get the caps lock light to come on, but that maybe a red herring ?

Before beginning the download, try temporarily disabling your antivirus, anti-adware, anti-spyware, and any other anti-whatever that is required with the secure OS your computer is running.

Trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings

trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings. What am I to do?

The storage you purchased is in the cloud, and doesn't do anything with your pad. Your problem is simply that you have too much content on your pad. Go to settings, general, usage, and it will show you how much space you have avaliable on your pad. If you let the screen sit for a while, all the apps will be displayed, and you can see how much stuff you have associated with each.
You have to no option but to delete some of the content on your pad. Videos, comics, pitcures and some music files use a lot of space. The cloud allows you to leave stuff there, so you can get it when you need it.

I have inserted a mini cd in my Mac Book Pro and cannot eject it. I have tried re-starting with F12 depressed and re-starting with the mouse pad depressed.

I have inserted a mini cd in my cd drive but the drive did not detect it; I am unable to eject the cd. I have tried re-starting with F12 depressed and also re-starting with the mouse pad depressed.
I am in a country where I belive there is no Apple support - Azerbaijan.
Apart from a tin opener, any other methods for extracting the mini cd.
I only found out that mini cds are not suitable after inserting this one and then reading 2 help manuals!!!

Take it to a place that repairs computers if you're not close to any apple authorized dealer.
You user guide clearly states that you can not use smaller CDs in your Macbook.
Lesson learned. Hopefully a repair shop can get it out for you.
Do not try to take it out yourself. You might cause more damage than good to your macbook.
Good luck.

I have this same problem. It's like it is not Authorizing this Mac.
What happens when you try to listen to a preview on the Music Store?
Mine asks me to authorize again and gives me the error exactly as you said above.
What happens when you try to view your account information (in Music Store, click on your account name in the top right corner)?
Mine lets me authorize sucessfully and shows me my account information.
I have emailed iTunes support about this and they replied with a generic answer about Deauthorizing and re-authorizing the computer.
I even tried, to no avail, the tips here...

I need some help resizing my images on PS6. I am using a mac and have been trying to resize with same resolution and constaining proportions but for some reaseon the smaller resized image appears pizelated. Heres an image of before and after. The first image I use is a JPG 72dpi 1500px x1500px and I want to downsize it to 600x600px same res, but it keeps pixelating, this has never happened before. Any suggestions, thoughts?
thanks!

I wouldn't say pixelated; more like blurry.
Like ConnectedCreative said, what steps are you using? Are you using "bicubic sharper" when resizing down?

It sounds as if you downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro. If you did, uninstall it. Then repair Adobe Reader.
The free Acrobat account has no connection to any of this.
