First you should clear the BIOS/CMOS when  you change hardware, such as add a video card.

In the BIOS, in the Chipset Configuration screen the Primary Graphics Adapter option must be set to PCI Express.

Do you know what BIOS version you have now? A new Beta BIOS update includes Improved VGA Card Compatibility. You may need that BIOS version if you have an old BIOS version:

Hi,

I am trying to add a new Graphics card but when I do, the box starts okay, but it is black and does not even go to the Green ASRock page.  After a while it beeped once but then still black.

The card is new .. Gigabyte 2GB DDR3  Geforce GT610   Win 10 version

Why would this be.

Thanks

oz
