Note: I'm sorta dumb with computers but smart enough to have built 3 that haven't exploded yet (until now)
Repeating means pop it out and back in right?
ReSeating, not rePeating. But yes. It's probably just GPU sag causing the card not sit properly in the slot. With the SLI bridge you had probably the weight of two GPUs weighting down the PCBs a little. Loosen the screws, push it in a bit (or pull it out fully and insert it again) and while tightening the screws make sure the card is a little aligned towards the top until they're tight. Make sure your gpu power cable is properly seated too. If the card happens to still sag a lot you could also try to find something to lift it up, but make sure it is something that is a) not conductive and b) not gonna damage anything if it potentially falls over.
Yes.
If you have a BIOS reset jumper, it might be worth setting that during the next boot too.
Tried that, got the monitor to wake up but still didn't display anything. Then I replaced the power cable to the card and now the whole pc isn't turning on so looks like I get to figure that out tomorrow. I'll check if I have a jumper on my board too and get back to you. Thanks for the help though
