New gpu issue

Well it's all academic as you've returned the GPU. Did you try the new GPU in other PCIe lanes if you have them?

Yeah, since it was working with his PSU we just took it to hook it up with my pc just to put PSU issue aside. If by lane you mean PCIe slot then it is working just fine as I am using my previous card now.
By my thoughts its motherboard that is behind this, but I want to know why?

Again it's obvious your PSU can't handle that card your friends worked because it was a 700w I am telling you it's the PSU because I had a 5670 that used 400w when I had a 400 it didn't even boot I got a new psu it booted

I thought the op said he tried his friends 700 w PSU in his system with the same new card that worked while it was in the friends system and when he tried the 700 w in his system it still didn't work. Unless I got that wrong as that's a ton of work to go through.

That is what I read he has a 500 and his friend 700

It's obvious something is left out that isn't being told

So how is it that your friends PSU worked in his but going into your rig it didn't ??? is that what you mean?

It's an odd situation and I'm not sure just what was happening with your mobo and new GPU but something didn't like each other much....odd.

run the Registry Cleaner in CCleaner to get rid of anything left behind by the NVidia card..
