HP Z800 with GTX560 TI, beeps six times.

[ Edited ]

Hi there,

As Battlefield 3 is nearly published I tried to upgrade my Z800.

Used ASUS Geforce GTX560 TI CUII, but with six POST beeps system does not boot.

 

Have checked that both leds in the graphic card are green which indicates that power is ok.

 

I tried also old NVIDIA 9600 GT which worked ok without any problems.

 

-BIOS is the latest one.

-PSU is 1100W

 

Any advice?

 

Thanks.

Hi:

 

Something is either wrong with the card or your Z doesn't like it.

 

6 Beeps = video error.

Thanks Paul,

Went thru support and maintenance guides and there are only mentions about Quadro-cards. Can you confirm that GTX will work on Z800 and there are no HW "limitations" that we have sometimes seen.

 

In the meanwhile I'll try to find another workstation to verify that the GTX is not broken (it's a brand new but you never know).
