New pc isnt working!

Ok cool
Now i have just tried to change my resolution and its only going to 1280x1024....my monitor is
1680x1050!
And also my gfx is coming up as standard vga adaptor?
 
I tend to download most from the manufacturers web site.

But Win 7 probably will find most for you.
 
Ok cool....
Guys i have just installed my gfx card and its a tight squeeze so i was wondering can i rest the psu cables im not using on top of my gfx card.....the bit without a fan.
Or will it short it?
 
Is this in the Cooler Master Elite 360 Case? If so, then I guess there isn't much space.

Putting the cables on the back of the graphics card shouldn't do any damage (the cables are well insulated after all) but it is bad form. There should be some space under the DVD drive, are you able to hide the cables in here?
 
Guys i have just ordered a new motherboard! and i was wondering can i just plug my hdd in and away i go? or do i need to re install windows?
 
What board did you go for?

If it uses the same chipset, often you can just carry on without reinstalling. However, it is almost always best to do a full reinstall when changing motherboards.
