What site mentions compatibility between the 750 TI and the H61M-VG4?
The BIOS setting to select a video card is in the North Bridge Configuration screen, the very first option, Primary Graphics Adapter. Settings are Onboard or PCI Express. This is the standard option still used on the latest boards for the video source selection. If you keep a cable connected to the Onboard graphics, it might still be selected during boot.
But it seems clear your 750 Ti card is not being detected. No Device Manager entry or detection by the driver installation program.
The 750 Ti is a PCIe 3.0 card, your CPU is a PCIe 2.0 source. The card still should work or at least be detected using PCIe 2.0 as far as I know.
Did you ever use a video card in the H61M-VG4 board?
The 750 Ti is drawing power only from the PCIe slot. What PSU are you using? 20 or 24 pin connector from the PSU to the board?
Check the mounting of the 750 in the slot. Be sure the locking tab on the slot is opened before inserting the card, and then lock it into place. Are the contacts on the video card clean?

Recently purchased a new AsRock H61M-VG4 mobo to replace my old one that died. I have a EVGA GTX 750 Ti graphics card in my other PC (HTPC) and decided to move it to my main. Purchased a new monitor so would like to maximize the display. Installed graphics card and plugged HDMI cable for monitor into. Black screen that goes to sleep after a few. Also tried the VGA cable. Same thing. Showing no signal. Went into BIOS for AsRock mobo to disable the integrated graphics card. No option to do so. Closest thing was to default video to PCIE. This was already defaulted. Still black screen. Tried to install NVIDIA drivers and getting the no compatible graphics card found. Device manager doesn't have it listed either or no listing of unknown or generic card. Just the integrated graphics card is shown. Also updated BIOS to latest version. Site mentions gtx 750 ti is compatible with the mobo so I am at a loss on what to do. CPU - i7 2600 Mobo - AsRock H61M-VG4 RAM - 8GB OS - Windows 10 raphics Card - EVGA GTX 750 ti Thanks for your time and assistance. fingers crossed |
