my new nvidia gt630 is not working

Erick Aguilar said:

I guess what he is trying to say is.. when you turn on the computer, do you get any message on the monitor saying anything among the lines of no video output, or does a light in the monitors power button come up at all?

Yep I should have mentioned too Erick that manufacturers screen on switching it on too

Well unless I have it wrong my friend we do not know the fan is spinning or in fact the monitor is actually on or even plugged in or do we??

Reminds me of when I worked for HP troubleshooting laptops in a call center. The eu would call and say my laptop will not power on then you would asked them to make sure it is pluged in and the cord from the wall is plug securly into the power brick. I had a lady get mad as heck at me one night when I asked her this but somtimes it can be that simple. You should lighten up torresno it called troubleshooting and these good people here are trying to help you.

Well put Kelly just lately I have turned on the lappy and forgot to turn the wall socket on and wondered why the thing suddenly crashed.

Now can we get back to it??

This is a good way to NOT get hellp, none of us are in front of your machine that you want fixed by telepathy. If you think these are noob questions, maybe we can't help you anyway.

Aaaaaaand. I'm out.

Good luck fixing your dud card Mr.Expert.

You know what, never mind.
I know the problem. You bought a weak and cheap PSU that can barely handle your system as is, and even if the card does not need external connection it probably cannot fire up due the pathetic performance.

But then again, you never posted your systems specs. Or provided any other sort of intelligent information, instead you basically said ''Plugged card, it won't werk, watdo''

Nobody here is looking at your computer, nobody knows what motherboard,cpu,ram,psu you have. And you expect us to solve your problems?

Really, if you are going online to seek for help, you are no one to say what type of questions are n00b and which ones are not. After all YOU are the one looking for help. If YOU were not a computer ''n00b'' you would not be posting here in the first place. So for the rest of the people who will continue helping, even though I doubt many will want to help as cheerfully as before.

Tell them what motherboard,CPU,RAM, and PSU you own, and post links to see their descriptions.

I suggest you start learning a thing or two about how to accept help, and how to use a computer young man.

Now I'm out. Cheerio.

I was reading the thread and really wanted to help. Then I read the last comment from Erick Aguilar.......I think you are right Erick....that's not the right way of asking for help torresno9.
