Hi folks,
Recently bought a NVIDIA 980, however am having some installation issues. When I boot with the new card, everything powers up, but it stops on the BIOS screen (num lock is responsive, all else seems fine). If I put the old gfx card back, everything works fine again. Any ideas? Am I potentially missing something specific I need to do with the new card?
