Did you set it up properly on your TV? How long did you have it? I have mine for 11 years and changed my TV about three times and it works beautifully with all makes of TV.

Try resetting the PRAM and see if that helps. Its possible One of your chips is faulty.

You can just make sure you uninstall the drivers for it while it is still plugged in. Once they're uninstalled remove the old card and add the new one. Install the new drivers that come with the card and you should be all good. I had issues with the drivers on the cd not matching the card so if all else fails just grab the newest driver online.Enjoy :D (R9 290 is a great card)

It could potentially be that your motherboard has failed as well. Does it work plugged in?

Not sure what "issues" exactly means. But the vendor does give a waranty on the chip. Just contact them.

Do you have your video cable plugged into the new card or the graphics output on the motherboard? What is your motherboard and what type of connection are you using?

Yes, I've installed this chip but had to do a bios update before it would boot.

Sounds like it could be the chip is installed wrong or missing altogether. That will give you a red light also. Mine works super.. Yes series is correct..

I had this same issue and I removed the CMOS battery and power for a couple of minutes and then it worked. I hope it works for you too.

Cycle through the source selections on the monitor. Make sure you're using the top PCI-E slot, the one closet to the CPU. Remove the video card and then put it back in. What code is being displayed in the Debug LED of the motherboard? Try disconnecting the cable then reconnect it. Try a different cable if possible. Please give more information, the more the better. Is this a new build? Was it previously working? There is the possibility of that old PCI-E card just not working in this newer PCI-E 2.0 mobo, even though technically the slot itself is backwards compatible with older cards, you will run into situations where it will not work. Please give as much information as possible though. Also list the system specs including the power supply, CPU, memory, HDD, etc

Actually mine doesn't work either. It will not format to the phone. I tried running it through the computer to see if there may be a problem with the chip itself and it comes back that it cannot be formatted. There is an error. The irony here is that I bought it through bulk packaging on Amazon. The company insistst that I send it back with all the original packaging of which there is none. How nice. I am out the money and the disk.

I would say yes Pop out the Simms and check the voltage and chip configuration. That's what I did.

You should return it! Mine worked right out of the box. Make sure you have it in the right port. Try one of the other E ports. It may depend on your motherboard, some of the older ones don't work well with these type of cards... good luck.

Hey Larry, I returned mine to Superchips, The Amazon ad said it would work but the factury said there's no program as you well know. They should take it back if it hasn't been programed with no Q's. Wish I could be more help ! Good Luck ! Dean

I had a compaq that had the same problem and this cpu worked. But if you aren't sure search compatible chips that work with your pc

Yes my chip has been activated. Took only seconds to set it up through the website. You can also activate it by calling the number on the card.

Check if the ram is dusty. If it isn't, take it out and blow the golden teeth and blow the insert rods inside the machine. It should be working now
