Graphics card not working

[daltonpp]

Hello, I recently bought a hard drive to put in my pc along with my ssd and when I installed it idk if I accidently unplugged other wires or not to it so idk what to check since I’m not to savvy with computers but my graphics card is a pny GeForce gtx 1060 direct 12, I have tried reinstalling drivers and also the led lights on it doesn’t work any more but the fans still run on it so what do I need to do to fix it?

Everything else works fine on it, it didn’t feel like it was connected loosely

Hello daltonpp,

Download then run Speccy (free) and post the resultant url for us, details here, this will provide us with information about your computer hardware + any software that you have installed that may explain the present issue/s.

I tried running NVidia drivers but says I don’t have a gpu connected

Sorry but not what we need, can you post the link that is generated when you run Speccy;

To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:

Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.

No worries and you are welcome

Both the GTX 1060 and its drivers are listed in Speccy so the system knows that they are there, can I ask you to make sure that the screen is attached to a video port on your add on video card and not to a video port on the motherboard.

[daltonpp]

I’m confused on what you mean by that, there’s only one cord going to the power supply and that’s it

[phillpower2]

Never mentioned any power cable daltonpp, please re read my reply #12

The video cable goes from your monitors input port and in this instance it should also go into a video port on your add on video port at the back of the computer, not your MB else you will only be using the processors HD graphics, see attachment below;
