i bought a new cpu and mobo and installed it and it worked fine, i did a format and install of windows and now the stupid thing wont detect my video card, i tried numerous ones. and i just got it to find the onboard video a sec ago. so can anyone help me, or noe the answer to y my vid card isnt being detected and if there might be something worng with my mobo?
 
Probably you didn't install your mobo's drivers and it didn't detect it's got an AGP slot.

Sometimes, when you don't do that, it is recognized as a PCI slot, but after you install its drivers, this problem is solved.

Try it.
 
yep i installed the wrong drivers. the mobo bog told my the wrong ver. of the board and now i noe which one it is. how do i uninstall all the mobo drivers?
 
What I didn't get was............ how could you install the wrong drivers??

If the drivers are not the right ones, the "mobo" wouldn't recognize them and they wouldn't be installed.

You didn't receive a message warning that those were wrong drivers??

Well, it doesn't matter........ if you want to uninstall them, go to the Control Panel e see if they are listed there. If so, then it's just uninstal via CP. If not, you will have to go to the Device Manager and uninstall them manually.

Good luck.
 
well i just did another format and reinstall of mce and still nothin im takin this peice of poop mobo back, i think i just got a bad one.
 
I've heard very good things about this 7300 GT.

They are comparable (if not better) to the 6600 GT, albeit they are cooler!!!

About the mobo, I can't help you, cause I don't know it very well, but I had an Abit and I can tell you that their quality is one of the best.

Actualy, I'm quite impressed by the quality of this Gigabyte I have here, but mine is AGP, although I have nothing to complain against my VGA's performance.

I think you should seriously consider doing this upgrade you wanna do.
 
A 7300 GT with DDR3 is a very strong video card for the price. I evaluated one here. Impressive value.
 
ok cool thanks guys, do frys refund u for mobo's that were in combos? cus i wanna take it back and buy those other things! i cant wait!~
