Hi sir I have the same card the fan stop spinng when I boot in windows but the hdmi works I have display but windows don't detected the card now I cant load the graphics drivers

[@DIYRepairHour]

Hi, surely if you have picture out the card must be detected, unless you are using iGPU built into your CPU?

[@reaganlewis9074]

Hi tnx for the feedback im not a pc wizard. So I don't know hoe to disable it or what toe do. I did watch some videos on igpu and change some setting in the bios but still no gpu detected

[@DIYRepairHour]

@@reaganlewis9074 i'm just confused about the card not detected part. Normally that means no display out at all, so something is clearly working. Could you explain what you mean by not detected?

[@reaganlewis9074]

Wen I go in device manager open display it only show onboard graphics and sorry man it's a 1050ti 4gig daul fan card not 1080. but still it don't show the card and wen I go online to nivida wepsite it don't load the drivers it don't detected the card

[@DIYRepairHour]

@@reaganlewis9074 Oh so the display is from onboard graphics then. No detect is often caused by missing power rail. The card needs to be opened and measured for resistances, as well for voltages.

Did you get it to boot?

wow that 1080ti looked like it went for a swim in the ocean

[@DIYRepairHour]

6 months in a humid shed will do that... I have it back from cleaning and it's better, but not much. Will record part 2 today :)

Czemu nie po polsku?

[@DIYRepairHour]

Nie mieszkam w Polsce od 2016 roku, filmy zacząłem kręcić dla ludzi z mojego teamu w pracy :) A przy okazji YT jest też dobrym powodem do starania się aby mówić lepiej po angielsku ;-)

haha i bid on the other one and i won it doesnt work though!

[@DIYRepairHour]

What was the other one? This one IDK if it will, there's some work to be done first. I wouldn't connect it, cores tend to crack after moisture ingress...
