Hi all,

I have a gigabyte GA-F2A85X-UP4. I also have a pcie x1 to x16 riser which I verified works that I just shorted according to the pin diagram. I have a low power nvidia 7200GS I am testing with (I dont think it requires much power as its very old). When I plug this in, everything else held the same on an other wise working rig, the PC wont boot. Are there any other tricks to try? I have tried swapping my other two pcie x16 cards around to different pcie x16 slots but no dice. I looked in the very basic manual that comes with the board, it says there may be special BIOS settings that need to be changed but I have no idea where to find them if there are any. The gigabyte bios looks very basic compared to the ASUS ones I'm used to.
