Hey guys! Just wondering if I could get a little help with my new gpu, since all the parts finally came in. It's all hooked up to my laptop, with a power supply, the graphics card, an external gpu adapter and my tv.

I have a Dell Lattitude E6430, (i7 processer) a Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 GPU, Corsair CX Series 550 Watt 80 Plus Bronze Certified Modular Power Supply, and a EXP GDC Laptop External PCIE Graphics Card. (Expresscard Version) and a Tobisha tv that is connected to the GPU via hdmi.

I followed this video tutorial

and I still cant figure out how to make it work. Everything is plugged in, and when I plug my external gpu cord into the display port, everything turns on. If I unplug it, they turn off, and my laptop will even make the 'disconnected device' audio.

Any help would be appreciated, Thank you all. :)

(P.S. I have my own video with me explaining and displaying the set-up, I'll post it if it's necessary.)
