Please help me /g/ I bought a gtx 1060 to replace my old cards and uninstalled the old drivers and replaced the card but my computer freezes at this bios startup screen. I've tried a lot of shit I've read, except updating my bios, because my bios is already almost up to date (relatively) and the later updates are almost as old and its minor shit and it said it can brick my whole mobo if it goes wrong. I've upgraded GPUs before but I'm guessing there's a problem because I'm using a much newer card? The worst thing is I have to take the whole fucking card out of my computer to get past this frozen start up screen and actually do anything so I'm afraid I'm gonna fuck up my card or other hardware eventually god dammit my last cards weren't even that bad there just isn't so much good SLI support any more, fuck

>>57420521
how many watts is your power supply?
>>
>>57420521
I would update your BIOS. If that doesn't work, return the card, it's probably just DOA.
>>
I mean maybe you guys would know if a mobos latest bios version is from 2012 it won't support gtx 10- series cards? Or if I really should just update the bios and not worry?
>>
>>57420528
>>57420528
650 watts

I was running two 660 ti's before this so that should be good
>>
>>57420530
Ok but before I do do you still think it's worth a try knowing the last bios update for my mobo is from near the end of 2012 and only a few months after the version I already have?

To me it seems kinda hopeless and my last two cards aren't that bad so I really don't wanna mess anything up
>>
Now my internet isn't working because it's saying everything is an insecure connection

Great I knew resetting my cmos thing was a good idea

What now

God I can't handle this shit holy fuck I am returning this I don't need this stress I just wanted to play some fucking games and it's just making me feel sick and upset

Relax, Pajeet. It's not that hard. Forget the BIOS update if you're that scared, it's not something that you do in your state of mind. It shouldn't do anything anyway. Take the card out and try reinstalling it, making sure it's all connected right. It's probably a loose connection or something. If it's all in, do an RMA. It happens, new parts can fuck up on installation too; I didn't think it could happen to me but I shorted out a new motherboard once. No problem, just returned it to the store, got a new one, and did it more carefully the second time around.

well OP is a retarded child. Seriously stop fucking with shit, you obviously have no fucking clue what's you're doing and are just making shit worse. The card is DOA and you need to return it. Sounds like you've also fucked up eniugh shit that you might as well just quote your hardrive and start over. Actually no you'll probably just fuck that up too so better off taking it to bestbuy and paying them a few hundred to do it

Pay someone to do this for you or buy a console next time, then. The new Xbox and Playstation consoles are coming soon, they'll be nice. You can play all of your multiplatform games and you get a browser that you can use to watch Netflix or whatever.

I've fucked up my own computer once and felt like an utter failure, and that came after I failed out of nursing school, so I know how crushing it must feel. Step away from the PC, get some sleep, and try again. You'll likely need some help and call in an RMA, like I did when I bricked my motherboard during a BIOS update. If you are really not up to it, you can hire someone to install it for you and get your PC running again. It's fine, there is help out there.
>>
Calmly start from scratch tomorrow, you retarded nigger. Do things in a logical sequence.
>>
>>57421892
It's not in safe mode

It only happened after I reset the cmos shit. Right after. At one point it was fixed but I did it again, I think I had to actually, wait I don't remember, but now it's fucked again and idk how it got fixed before

It also screwed up my clock

When I googled it some other guy seemed to have a related issue

Another note, you reinstalled your old video cards now and the PC is running, right? Get a return on the new one then; it's very simple.

The "____ website is not configured correctly" is an error in Firefox when it notices that the BIOS clock and the clock set on Windows doesn't match, because your clock is at a different time than what the website says it is. Your BIOS clock reset when you pulled out the battery. Set the time correctly in the BIOS, save the setting, and when you go back to Windows, make sure the time is correct in that too. The error should go away on Firefox.
>>
>>57421939
I mean obviously the clock isn't an issue

Shouldn't have told him. It was more fun when he thought it was demon magic.

Which was completely unnecessary. Exactly what motherboard is this?

I worked on PCs that had failing CMOS batteries and laptops that had trouble with the CMOS batteries and they all had this error when trying to browse the internet. The BIOS clock must be set to the correct time or all the web browsers will complain that the websites are not configured correctly. The clock is the problem.

I don't think this could have been more entertaining but true, I probably should have left it alone. But this is the real world and at this rate, OP would have bricked his motherboard with a botched BIOS update that would have been completely unnecessary. If I can't have empathy for someone who is potentially mentally compromised, then I can at least empathize with the innocent PC parts that are being tortured right now.

Back when I had a 965 chipset motherboard and upgraded to the 650TI the motherboard couldn't load GPU drivers without crashing, it turns out that a bios update was needed to fix the issue.

So yeah, BIOS could be the problem.

Next time buy a whole new prebuilt PC since you are such a useless dumb fuck. And go to a doctor or something.
