Hi,
I recently added an MSI GTX 980 4G to my system, when i try to boot up the white VGA led on the motherboard lights up and QCODE B2 is displayed.
Both GPU and Motherboard bios have the latest version.
Previously I just used the iGPU without any problems.
Both 8 pin connectors are hooked up to my card, I've tried 2 different cables with same result.
The GPU logo is lighting up, initialy both fans on the card spin up but stop after a minute or so.
I've performed numerous CMOS resets, forced PEG as primary GPU in the bios.
After some trial and error i've managed some workaround:
Disconnect power from GPU
Boot system with iGPU
When booted to Windows 10, connect power connectors to GPU
Reboot system
Switch monitor to GPU displayport
And it works!
However, when i shutdown the system and boot again the problem is back!
