GPU Booting Problem

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Silly question but did you try clearing CMOS with the new GPU installed?
It looks like when you set CSM to off on the old card and then shut down and swap in the new one the board flags an error that is related to the old GPU. The RX 460 does support GOP where the GT 630 may not (some do some don't). If you have not tried to clear CMOS yet I would do so and post back.

	Fire up an app, GPU-z, and reply back what vBIOS it reports your RX460 is currently flashed to. I can locate and confirm via Google that the 4GB version of your card has a GOP/UEFI compatible. But I haven't found anything of your 2GB model. skillzzz, I'm actually surprised you didn't receive this advice at TomsHardware Too, this can be overcome with changing a BIOS setting or two. But I'd much rather see you get a GOP/UEFI vBIOS first.

	Hi, one week ago I have bought an GPU - Gigabyte Radeon RX 460 Windforce OC - which I installed on my - ASRock H81M-VG4(BIOS P1.50) - motherboard. MOBO - http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H81M-VG4/ GPU - http://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-RX460WF2OC-2GD The problem is while I boot the computer using the RX 460. It won't show the POST Screen and won't boot to windows loading screen(Its simply giving me a black screen and stay that way) unless I swap the RX 460 with my old GT 630. While using the RX 460, computer shuts down instantly when pressing the power button (usually I think it should take around 4-5 seconds). After I changed the RX 460 with the GT 630, It succesfully shows the POST Screen and I can use the BIOS so I can go to CSM and disable it then shut down the computer, remove the GT 630 from the PCIe slot, put the RX 460 back into the PCIe slot and it kinda works. It does boot with CSM Disabled. When it boots with CSM Disabled I hear 3-4 beeps and after those beeps a message shows up on the screen saying : When I took this picture the bios version was P1.30 I succesfully updated it to P1.50 yesterday. I press F1 and It does boot using the RX 460. It works perfectly, without a problem untill I gotta shutdown the PC thats when CSM its getting set back to Enabled automatically.. Please can you guys help me do something about this? I've been changing GPU's between GT 630 and RX 460 for 1 week. Should I buy a new Motherboard? Can I damage the GPU if I take it out and put it back in everyday? What should I do, please help me. If that somehow help I use Windows 10. Edited by sleepyhead - 20 Feb 2017 at 12:13pm
