Tech Clinic / PCIe slot go bad?

sounds like you either had a spike of voltage with the psu


or the slot is just bad


You can troubleshoot hardware more on your end then I can


Sorry I can\'t be of more help

I have updated my drivers and as far as I can tell all drivers are up to date. if the slot is bad is there a way to test it to find out? if it is determined that its bad is the only remedy
replacing the MOBO and any idea why plugging my TV into the video card created the issue? I have plugged it in many times before that... I don\'t have an issue replacing the MOBO just looking for a direction before throwing money at something that\'s not the issue. regardless of your answer thank you Guestolo for your help as always.

Could be that one pcie slot is bad, as for the other you may want to ensure uninstall and install latest video drivers

ok.. after my Bios update I tried placing my GeForce GTX 550Ti back into the primary PCIe slot and the original problem still exists, on boot up my PC gives me 1 long beep and 3 short beeps and my monitor is black, I can hear Windows start through the speakers but no picture. I placed my video card back in the secondary PCIe slot and I have a picture on my monitor but my system as a whole seems a lot less stable with not responding pop-ups and monitor going black and restarting.

The info of your motherboard should be printed right on motherboard itself


Regardless, if you\'re unsure about updating bios, might want to leave it, but info is all in the motherboard manual


Shows more than one way of updating

ok.. my Bios is American Megatrends v0702 which I tried to update and I cant seem to find an update for it. installed the ASUS update utility with no luck, when I try the option of \"install update from the internet\" all it says is looking for server. The ASUS website is not much help either.

I do have the manual for my motherboard but any manual overclocking or changing setting,( like the speed of my RAM it crashes) and gives me the red light on the motherboard.
I realize tomorrow is Christmas so have a great Christmas Guestolo and I look forward to continuing this thread after the holidays.

A bios update may fix some problems


One update I believe addresses 



Fixed onboard & add-on VGA card compatibility issue

 I can\'t find your exact model motherboard, what bios version you have installed?


Are you planning to update bios?


.


You should have your manual for tweaking memory, etc....


Here\'s a link to a similiar model motherboard manual
