New GPU and CPU installed - Crippled PC

Yes. Was careful to remove old drivers. Nvidia seems not to like AMD drivers! In fact twice has been fresh windows install. And I don’t think my microwave was on!

As for “trying” cards, I feel I really need to think of the likely best outcome….. not really fair on suppliers when stuff doesn’t work if it’s my system…… but who knows, this could have been a one off duff card?!

Very much appreciate all the advice here. Although it wasn’t a fix as such, it still ruled out a lot of idiot possibilities on my behalf
 
Just a final follow up to close the thread….. new card ordered, same card, different manufacturer - no problems at all. Working flawlessly for numerous days.

So only conclusion that can be drawn is a one off duff card, or that Gainward make doesn’t play ball with my PC. The former seems by far the most likely.

Thanks all for your input. The people make the forum what it is
