| A7V880 + 9700 Pro won't boot When I say it won't boot I mean no display,standby light on the monitor ,fans spinning. The machine works fine with a GF4. I noticed a note in the manual about only using 9500s & 9700's from PN xxx-xxxxx-30 onwards 'for optimium peformance & overclocking stability' ,(why the hell is that anyway?? those cards were out long before this mbrd so they should work! ),as it happens my 9700 ends with 01.Anyway to fix this? |

| Re: A7V880 + 9700 Pro won't boot After checking back the psu that I was using was an Antec True 380S . Put it in another system but using nvidia card and no problems , still going strong. |
