| Have you got both the 20pin and the 6pin motherboard power cables plugged in? No post suggest a lack of motherboard power. Also, do you have an onboard graphics output? if so take the card out and see if you get any output through that port. |

| It's probably toast. The last video card I bought was toast out of the box. Save yourself the agony of trying to fix it and just bring it back. |

I have not altered power. The card just uses PCIE slot power. The mainboard has no on-board graphics. I am returning the card tomorrow. |

| Problem was faulty card. The company didn't tell me they had refunded my money, I was sitting around waiting to hear back but had to call the morons. Shit service from JS tech. |
