I built my brother a computer, everything is running fine except I can't get it to display anything on the screen. At first I thought the GC was DOA. But then I put my card in, that I knew was good, and it was the same outcome. I'm thinking for whatever reason, the PCI-E x16 isn't working. There is two of them on the mobo, and I get the same result from both. Has anyone experienced something similar?

I can't set BIOS. I can't get it to show anything on my computer screen. And Shaj, you're an idiot...

It's just a GeForce 7600gt, and it's a 550w PSU. 1 Optical drive. 1 Hdd, 1.86ghz core 2 duo, 1.5gb RAM. That power supply should be more than enough.

Have you set the BIOS to recognize it?

If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.
