Graphics Card Doesn't Fit In Case?!
Ok so i'm putting together a computer for a friend. I'm trying to fit the graphics card into the motherboard/case and for some reason the top of the video card like comes into contact with the case expansion slot and makes it not able to go in all the way. On the left side of the card it fits fine but just it won't fit on the right side (see picture below)

It looks to me like you are not using standoffs to mount the motherboard in the case. You don't just slap screws through the motherboard directly into the holes in the motherboard tray.

Unlikely, unless you have tried applying power to it.

New Build - Mouse,Keyboard, Video Card Doesn't work?!
Hey all, I just finished putting all the final touches on my new build for a family friend. It turns on just fine the only problem is that I plug in my g11 keyboard and g5 mouse through the USB ports in the back and the lights don't come on which is telling me that the computer isn't picking them up. On top of that, The Nvidia 9500 isn't sending out a signal to my monitor! Any ideas?? I haven't heard any beeping at all.
Motherboard - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...8&sku=I69-2188 Graphics Card - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...&sku=E145-9504 There's 4 GB of RAM and a 2.9 intel duo processor. Thanks for the help! Last edited by starvinmarvin; 08-17-2009 at 02:47 PM. |
