Z68A-GD55-G3 + i5-2500 doesn't recognize my graphic card

Hello Gentlemen,
I've upgraded my MB and CPU to Z68A-GD55-G3 and Core i5-2500 recently and faced with big problem.
My Radeon 6950(it's also MSI, BTW) is not recognized by new system. I've connected my monitor to Graphic card and just see a black screen all the time. Graphic card's fan works.
I tried to connect monitor to integrated graphics's output and it works. I don't see my Radeon 6950 recognized in Device manager in windows.
Also, I tried my old Radeon 3870 on this MB. Result is the same, but it works fine on my second PC.
Virtu Technology - Disabled
Initiate Graphics Adapter - PEG
I haven't installed any virtu drivers and bios wasn't updated. Also, I haven't reinstalled my windows, but I don't believe it may cause such problem
I guess that this is due to integrated GPU and it should be disabled somehow.
Gurus, Can you help me?
Thanks in advance.

Hello again!
Had a conversation with a guy from service center and he said that most likely there is broken south bridge in my MB and they can't help me with this.
And warranty won't apply for this MB anymore because I had broken socket :(
Just wondering does southbridge somehow responcible for GPU?
I thought that northbridge is responcible for this and it's in CPU. So it seems to me that they don't really know what the problem is.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
I returned a Z68 GD65 G3 because some of the pins were slightly bent.  I observed when I did my initial inspection of the MB just a few days after I bought it.  Returned it to store withing the 30 day return period. 
Since your MB is now out of warranty  you may be able to slightly bend that pin to match the others.  Just be very careful. (Do at your own risks). 
Are you able to get a hold of a a different cpu that has a igpu and see if you can get the display working without the video card?
I have read about problems with the display not working.  The latest BIOS should have all that fixed.

  • Notebook doesn't recognize installed graphics card

    Recently purchased the HP Envy 15-q748ca notebook which comes with the Nvidia GeForce GTX 850M installed. However, laptop has stopped upgrading the drivers and no longer recognizes that that GPU is installed and is instead using the Intel HD 4600 GPU. Help.

  • IPhone doesn't recognize my SIM Card after update to iOS 5.1

    I updated my iOS to 5.1 yesterday and after that my iPhone doesn't recognize my SIM Card. What has happened to my iPhone?

    It was probably jailbroken or hacked to unlock it. If that's the case it is now bricked. You may be able to find an answer on Google, but you cannot get help here.

  • Photoshop CC 64 bit sometimes won't recognize Nvidia graphics card

    Sometimes when I open Photoshop CC 64 bit on windows 8.1 I get these warnings. I then have to restart my laptop for Photoshop to recognize my graphics card. Sometimes when I launch photoshop it is fine and there is no issue at all. It seems like every other time I launch Photoshop I get these warnings. I noticed that when installing programs from Adobe CC there are 2 versions installed. I tried opening the version that is not 64 bit and I did not get these warnings.

    I noticed from another thread, that nVidia released a new Windows driver earlier this month.  About the 3rd of March if memory serves.  I don't know what card you are using, but I think some of those drivers cover a range of cards for the OS the driver is intended for.

  • I have upgraded my MacBook Pro 15 late 2011 to 8Gb RAM, now when I go to about this mac in it more info it doesn't show AMD graphics card as it used to before, it just show  Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB is that a problem that I need to worry about?

    I have upgraded my MacBook Pro 15 late 2011 to 8Gb RAM, now when I go to about this mac in it more info it doesn't show AMD graphics card as it used to before, it just show  Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB is that a problem that I need to worry about?
    and in system report >> hardware >> Graphics/Display >> it shows both grafics card listed.

    Some Mac's when the RAM is increased the Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics will bump itself up to the higher video RAM it takes, this seems to be what occured.
    It also means the dedicated graphics card will be used less, but only so slightly less.
    You obviously still should have both, you can test this by turning off Graphics Switching in Energy Saver, that will use the decicated AMD card all the time.
    You can also run Cinebench and compare the scores here

  • Solaris 9 x86 doesn't recognize my lan card and can't get the drivers

    Hi guys! I have a problem with my solaris os.. It doesn't recognize my realtek 8029 lan card and this means that i can't download the drivers from the internet.. Anyway i got the drivers using my other installed OS ( slackware linux 9 ) from the www but there's a problem it seems that i cant mount the harddrive where the driverz are..neither linux->mount solaris hd disk nor solaris->mount linux hd disk do the trick..(+ i don't have a floppy drive ) Any ideaz how to transfer the drivers from the hd disk where the linux is installed to the solaris disk..?

    I have the same NIC (RTL 8029 chip), and.. the solution 4 you. :) I made this quick guide for me, so I can add netwotk support to my system, very easily. Happy to see that another person needs that info.
    Follow these steps:
    1. Download the file from the link below, put it at /, and unzip it.
    ftp://sun.drydog.com/pub/solaris/nei-i86pc-solaris5.7.zip
    2. Run (from command line) the command:
    add_drv /kernel/drv/nei; devlinks
    3. Create the file /kernel/drv/nei.conf and write
    name="nei" parent="isa" reg=1,0xe800,0x1f interrupts=5;
    (this is the hardware address for my card, you should find your's).
    4. Create the file /etc/hostname.nei0, whick will contain the line
    192.168.0.1
    (this is the IP addr. I use for my internal network, change that to any other reserved addr. you like, like 10.0.0.1)
    5. If you use IPv6, create /etc/hostname6.nei0 ,too, with the same contents as hostname.nei0
    192.168.0.1
    6. Edit /etc/hosts and add the line:
    192.168.0.1 myname.mydomain
    7. Edit /etc/inet/hosts and make the file look like this:
    127.0.0.1 localhost
    192.168.0.1 myname.mydomain loghost
    8. Edit /etc/inet/netmasks and put:
    192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0
    9. Run from command line mode or from a terminal:
    /usr/sbin/drvconfig -i nei
    10. Run from command line mode or from a terminal:
    touch /reconfigure; /usr/sbin/reboot
    11. After rebooting, type "ifconfig nei0 plumb" to make sure the device was recognized.
    It should show up in the output from typing "prtconf"
    Normally, now you can use your RTL8029 card.
    I hope I help a little bit mate. :)

  • My iphone 4s doesn't recognize my SIM card

    I went to trade 4S for 5C and couldn't get credit for it because I couldn't wipe phone. Can I get a functioning SIM card to trade in otherwise good phone? It looks brand new and is a year old.

        Hello greg5844.
    I'm sorry you are having difficulty trading in your phone. The iPhone 4S doesn't require a SIM card to function but does have the option for an optional Global SIM card. If you are trying to erase your personal information from your iPhone 4S please make sure you turn off iCloud first (Settings>iCloud) and then go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings.

  • IPhoto doesn't recognize pictures on card / already imported pictures

    Hi all,
    iPhoto '09 (latest version) on my wife's MBP (CoreDuo, early 2006, latest Snow Leopard) has always worked well for het (about 35,000 pix in the database). Last week, out of a sudden, it stopped recognizing new images when a card is plugged in (tested with two different SD cards from two different cameras). Manual importing works, but it won't recognize already imported images anymore, it just imports them again.
    I already re-built iPhoto's database (by holding alt + cmd when starting up iPhoto), but it didn't change anything.
    This is really strange - can anyone help us here?
    Thank you!
    Best regards,
    Thomas.

    Well, I was too fast yesterday. Nothing is solved.
    Today my wife said that when she plugged in the card from her new camera (8 GB), iPhoto starts up but then showed the spinning wheel for 10 minutes, no pictures are shows. Then she got impatient and imported manually again.
    I tested again tonight with the 8 GB SDHC card - all tests yesterday were done with a 2 GB standard SD card. And really, regardless what card I plug in, iPhoto doesn't start up. Even changing the program to start up when a camera is attached (see above) doesn't help.
    So I created a new user account. Plugged in the 2 GB card, iPhoto starts and shows all pix. Fine. Closed iPhoto, ejected the card and plugged in the 8 GB one. iPhoto starts up and - just as described above - only shows the spinning wheel but no pictures within 10 minutes (364 images are on the card). Closed iPhoto again, and now it doesn't even start up anymore, no matter which of the two cards I plug in.
    Can it be that iPhoto has a problem with the 8 GB SDHC card? We have been using this only for 3 weeks now, when we bought a new camera. Before the 2 GB SD card was used. However, iPhoto worked well with the 8 GB card for the first two weeks, and I haven't tried if re-formatting will help.
    Any comments?
    Thank you!
    Best wishes,
    Thomas.

  • Mac Book Pro doesn't recognize Verizon Air Card

    After VZ Access Manager software is installed and the device is connected to USB, my Mac Book Pro will not recognize the device. Am I missing something here?

    Presuming you are using version 4.2.2 then if a reboot does not help, try resetting PRAM and also repair permissions.
    If none of this helps, I suggest contacting Verizon or wait for someone else to post here with more information.

  • Premiere CC doesn't recognize my Nvidia card

    I am getting an error message that says "This project was last used with Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (CUDA), which is either not available or not certified on this system. Mercury Playback Engine Software Only will be used." I have a NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M which was working before... what happened?
    My system:
    I purchased a refurbed MacBook Pro directly with Apple in 2012 and it came preinstalled with an Intel HD Graphics 4000 (built in) and NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M (via PCIe). I am running OS X 10.8.5 and Adobe CC (mostly Premiere).
    Is it the driver? When I look for the updated driver for NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M there doesn't seem to be an option for this card/operating system configuration? How is this possible and is this the cause of my problem or is it the Premiere program?
    Thanks for the help!

    Kevin,
    CUDA is definitely not an option in my Premiere CC Project settings.  My CUDA version is 5.5.28.  After Effects seems to be fine now.  In AE and Photoshop the other day it had come up with an issue about GPU not being present any longer.

  • AppStore on iPhone 4 doesn't recognize my credit card!

    So here's the problem: i just bought a new iPhone 4 i allready owned a iPhone 3GS so after the startup and update of the iPhone 4 i passed all the apps from my iPhone 3 on the new one, as soon as i tried to buy an app on the AppStore with my iPhone 4 it asked me for the credit card validation number i inserted it but for some reason it says to change the payment method even if I still use that account to buy stuff on my iPhone 3. Can somebody help please? Thanks a lot

    This is a recent problem, my iphone 4 used to recognize my WiFi.
    Also, I tried rebooting the iphone which did not help.
    When I go to settings, Wi-Fi it shows "Not Connected", when I go to the Wi-Fi screen it shows my next store neighbors home Wi-Fi but not mine.
    Re-booteding the router did not help.

  • Log and transfer doesn't recognize my SD-cards any more!

    On my FCP7 log and transfer won't recognize SD-cards any more.
    Log and transfer just flashes the "adding" -part and then nothing, or in some times it crashes the whole Final Cut.
    I have been using the same cards, my old Canon 60D and Canon E-1 movie plugin for years. Only new thing is that I now have a Canon 6D with old 60D.
    The weirdest thing is that, I have some old SD card images (made with disk Utility for back up) and when opened there are no problems.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Have you tried resetting your fcp preferences?  Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager is the best tool for doing this in my opinion.

    Hi
    Toshiba notebooks dont support any Linux distributions. Toshiba notebooks are delivered and tested only with Microsoft Windows OS.
    As far as I know this unit was delivered with Marvell based PC Express I/F LAN (I/F Chip Marvell based PC Express I/F)
    Well, you can try to goggle a little bit. Maybe you will find a driver for Linux.
    Furthermore the Fedora Core 4 is based on a Red Hat Linux distribution. So I recommend to visit also this website:
