Hi

can't figure out a solution to this

I have new gigabyte ma790x mobo with (known working) gts250 gpu

when placed in PCIe16 it locks up the pc (windows loading progress bar stops forever or screen goes black)

but in PCIe8 slot it works fine

as a test I put my old 3870 in the PCIe16 and it works fine

- nv gpu should work in amd chipset mobo?
- are there any diagnostics I can run on gpu?
- what else should I think about?

ntbtlog.txt just shows crash after cdfs.sys
that is usually followed by processor then ... GTS250
