The card does not show in the device manager, I have tried unseating and re-seating it and swapping the connections over (750w PSU with twin GPU support) to the second set of power connections, the card appears to have power on both of them as the fans are spinning. I also swapped the DVI for an HDMI connector and still no-dice.

I connected it to the motherboard graphics and lo and behold I could see things again everything seems to be functioning normally. For one final check I rebooted and went into my Bios, to be greeted by this:

Has my MSI GTX780 karked it or is there something more sinister at play?

Thanks in advance.
 
Hello,
Yes I have and it did not make a difference. I have just had a multi-meter on the pins on the power supply and all seems well with that too.

A friend is going to lend me an old card that he knows works to test it with to make sure but that BIOS screen worries me.

For reference here is my system spec (bought and setup November 2013):
MSI 787-G45 Gaming motherboard
Intel i7 Haswell (4770k) processor
16GB (2x 8GB) RAM (Teamgroup Vulcan Red, 2133MHz)
x1 Toshiba 128GB SSD (OS)
x1 Samsung 250GB SSD (Games)
x1 Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB HDD (backup and general use)
GTX780 (MSI Gaming edition) Graphics)
Onboard Audio
Texas Instruments USB 3 PCI (powered)
LG IPS 27EA53 Monitor (DVI-D)
Arctic Cooling Freezer Xtreme heat sink
Antec P193 V3 x1 200mm side intake fan, x2 140mm top fan, x1 120mm rear fan exhaust fans.
x2 Be Quiet 120mm intake fans in the front of the case
Corsair 750w Modular PSU

Cheers
