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? |
PC Specs show the 750ti as compatible with the mobo. http://www.pc-specs.com/gpu/Nvidia/700_Series/GeForce_GTX_750_Ti/883/Compatible_Motherboards However, when I do the reverse and search by mobo and check the gpu compatible it doesn't show the 700 series so there's probably the answer.
Never used a video card on the mobo. Newly purchased to replace previous mobo (another brand) that died.
Using a 400w PSU that came with the case. 24 pin connector.
Can confirm, card is locked in place and card is clean.
