?! George?!! But how???... I thought you got banned...

I did get banned... I got an underage ban for saying "I'm 12 and what is this?" Obviously I wasn't 12.... I guess they lifted the ban 3 years later under the presumption that I am now 15? Or maybe they realized it was just a meme? I don't know, but I checked my moderation history and my account was "reinstated."

ok first of all, u said ur computer auto matically uses the onboard video; which must mean that you have a wire plugged into ur ONBOARD GPU and not ur PCIE gpu. if thats not the case it could be the cable that is messed up or maybe even the mobo.killa4lyfe
no the computer is still using the onboard video even when the vga cable is plugged into the graphics card.... so its like the vga cable isnt plugged into anything. i rma'd the motherboard.

alright well i RMA'd the motherboard with Newegg. i said that it wouldn't detect any PCI-E video cards. hopefully they dont send me an email saying that there's nothing wrong with it. I even called asus and they said that it was probably a chipset issue and that i should RMA the motherboard... but im a bit skeptical as i haven't seen this problem anywhere else on any other forums. Well hopefully they'll send me the replacement in the next couple of days and that will be the end of it.

The secong gpu i am using is an xfx 4650, it does not require any 4 pin or 6 pin connections to the psu, just plugs right into the motherboard and draws power from it. I have looked all through the bios settings and the manual for a way to disable any of the "hybrid" options, but the ability to turn that off seems to be lacking. I also tried uninstalling the drivers for my onboard graphics in windows but the 4650 is still not recognized in the device manager or anywhere else. I also tried pulling my motherboard out of the case, putting it on top of a cardboard box, attaching the graphics card to it, and booting it there to see if it was some sort of grounding issue inside the case but the card was still not recognized. I called ASUS and when i told the guy that it wasnt recognizing 2 different cards, he immediately told me that it was probably either a grounding issue or my motherboard had some sort of chipset manufacturing error... he said that he highly doubted flashing my bios would help. I dont think i want to believe him just yet. Any more suggestions?
