New Video Card no worky

[Basie]

Picked up a Asus Radeon HD 6670 today at Fry's. Stuck it into my system tonight and using the DVI connector the Monitor recognizes it and the fan comes on the Card but no display. The light on the Monitor usually turns blue when the display is on but this stays the yellow orange color indicating nothing from the Card. Just bad luck and return this for another one?

Make sure the card is in the correct PCIe slot - should be the slot closest to the CPU. Also, have you tried using the other VGA or HDMI ports, if you have them, to narrow down the options?

I realized my problem. I disconnected from the Integrated graphic chip before telling the BIOS where to look for my new Graphics Card. Once selected it worked fine.

@Basie

nice you found the fix

I was just about to write that you should check the bios settings for primary display adapter. Sometimes its just set to the IGP, so even with a new card, unless you change that setting no signal.
