    Hello,
    I have a problem with my graphics card - it does not display any image (black screen). Everything works with the card integrated on the board. I put the card into another computer and everything works normally.

    I thought it was the motherboard's fault. I replaced: motherboard, processor, memory and power supply (from 450W to 600W). Unfortunately, the problem is the same - there is still no image from the graphics card.
    Has anyone encountered a similar problem?

    The entire hardware configuration along with the exact models of everything (motherboard, memory, processor, card, power supply).
    Place another card on this board and check.

    Motherboard: Gigabyte M68MT-S2p
    Processor: Athlon II 250 3GHz
    Memory: 4GB Kingston DDR3 1333
    Graphics: Geforce Asus 8800GT
    Power supply: iBox 600W

    I checked the graphics on another disc and it works.

    Who advised you to buy such a "power supply"? I wouldn't call him a friend ... ;)

    Is the card powered? In the BIOS it is set correctly, ie Init Display First to PCIe?

    Set in the BIOS, the card is powered on. When it is disconnected, it "squeals" and demands more current.

    And at this time, it is not by chance that the signal is on the integrated one?

    It automatically switches to integrated - that's a fact.

    Then read the instructions from your motherboard what it means and how to set options in the BIOS.

    In bios, I only have 2 options for graphics - either they always work or if no graphics are detected on the PCIE, the integrated one starts.

    Init Display First ustaw na PEG

    Onboard GPU ustaw na Enable If No Ext PEG

    I have exactly that.

    If the board then switches to the integrated card, it means that it does not detect the additional card.

    Make sure that the additional penalty is properly seated in the PCIe slot and that the slot is not damaged or contaminated. Also make sure that it is properly powered.
    A brand-name power supply would come in handy, because Watty means nothing in the case of this product.

    I have the same on the second disc - that's why I changed the disc, the album and the memory. Apart from the drives, I only have graphics. The weirdest thing is that the card works on a different computer: /

    Did you replace the disc with the same or a different one?

    Power supply changed from Tracer 450W. It was exactly the same on it.

    Added after 2 [minutes]:

    I will add that before that, everything worked without any problems.

    Convert Tracer to iBox ... priceless :D

    What about the album?

    I have both at home, and both are the same.
    The previous motherboard is ASUS K9NPGM2-V2 with AMD Atlon X2 4400+.
    I currently have a Gigabyte M68MT-S2 and an Athlon II 250.

    There is probably something wrong with the graphics, but it's weird that the card works for a friend without any problems.

    The weird thing is that it doesn't work on a second, different disc.

    Take everything out of the case. Put the motherboard with the processor and memory on the desk, connect the power supply to it. Connect the monitor to the integrated one, check if it starts and there is an image. Disconnect the power, insert an additional card, connect the monitor to it, check if there is an image.

    I did exactly what you wrote, on 2 sets of computers. Unfortunately, it's the same every time - only integrated graphics start. I even used other power outlets.
    I went to a friend with graphics and it works beautifully for him. But I borrowed the GF 8600GT from him and put it in my computer - surprisingly it started! When I replaced the card with 8800GT it stopped working again.
    I do not understand....

    If it's rev.1.0, then to check / update the BIOS - they wrote something about the new version: Improve NVIDIA 4series VGA compatibility - although it's probably about GT_4xx ...

    LiveUpdate shows that I have the latest BIOS version.

    Problem solved :) It turned out that there was cold February on the card. Already fixed and the card flashes nice :)
